drm: Fix getconnector connection_mutex locking
I've fumbled my own idea and enthusiastically wrapped all the getconnector code with the connection_mutex. But we only need it to chase the connector->encoder link. Even there it's not really needed since races with userspace won't matter, but better paranoid and consistent about this stuff. If we grap it everywhere connector probe callbacks can't grab it themselves, which means they'll deadlock. i915 does that for the load detect pipe. Furthermore i915 needs to do a ww dance since we also need to grab the mutex of the load detect crtc.
