drm: review locking rules in drm_crtc.c

- config_cleanup was confused: It claimed that callers need to hold
  the modeset lock, but the connector|encoder_cleanup helpers grabbed
  that themselves (note that crtc_cleanup did _not_ grab the modeset
  lock). Which resulted in all drivers _not_ hodling the lock. Since
  this is for single-threaded cleanup code, drop the requirement from
  docs and also drop the lock_grabbing from all _cleanup functions.

- Kill the LOCKING section in the doctype, since clearly we're not
  good enough to keep them up-to-date. And misleading locking
  documentation is worse than useless (see e.g. the comment in the
  vmgfx driver about the cleanup mess). And since for most functions
  the very first line either grabs the lock or has a WARN_ON(!locked)
  the documentation doesn't really add anything.

- Instead put in some effort into explaining the only two special
  cases a bit better: config_init and config_cleanup are both called
  from single-threaded setup/teardown code, so don't do any locking.
  It's the driver's job though to enforce this.

- Where lacking, add a WARN_ON(!is_locked). Not many places though,
  since locking around fbdev setup/teardown is through-roughly screwed
  up, and so will break almost every single WARN annotation I've tried
  to add.

- Add a drm_modeset_is_locked helper - the Grate Modset Locking Rework
  will use the compiler to assist in the big reorg by renaming the
  mode lock, so start encapsulating things. Unfortunately this ended
  up in the "wrong" header file since it needs the definition of
  struct drm_device.

v2: Drop most WARNS again - we hit them all over the place, mostly in
the setup and teardown sequences. And trying to fix it up leads to
nice deadlocks, since the locking in the setup code is really
inconsistent.
