Grab the connection_mutex around MSR link retraining to protect it
against a concurrent modeset. We already do the same for SST.

DP hpd_pulse can still otherwise race against modeset and ->detect(), so
it's not clear what will happen when both want to scribble into eg.
intel_dp->dpcd[] at the same time. But sorting it all out requires way
more thought than I'm willing to expend now.

Actually I suppose this might not work out so well after all. I suppose
MST depends on short HPDs during modeset due to the sideband stuff.

So if we want to grab modeset locks for retraining, I suppose we'd
need to move the retraining to happen from .hot_plug() which gets run
from the other hotplug work, and so wouldn't interfere with sideband.

I think it would be better to have a per encoder mutex. In the future we may want to run modeset
disable/enable async, in which case it may not hold the connection_mutex.

If we do decide on a separate mutex then it would also be useful to also think about how to
protect intel_mst_*(dis,en)able_dp. :)

We need to sync re-training with any other modeset work. Which means
another thing to get right for async modesets.
