When Panfrost must pin an object that is being prepared a dma-buf
attachment for on behalf of another driver, the core drm gem object pinning
code already takes a lock on the object's dma reservation.
However, Panfrost GEM object's pinning callback would eventually try taking
the lock on the same dma reservation when delegating pinning of the object
onto the shmem subsystem, which led to a deadlock.
This can be shown by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH, which throws
the following recursive locking situation:
weston/3440 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff000000e235a0 (reservation_ww_class_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: drm_gem_shmem_pin+0x34/0xb8 [drm_shmem_helper]
but task is already holding lock:
ffff000000e235a0 (reservation_ww_class_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: drm_gem_pin+0x2c/0x80 [drm]
Fix it by assuming the object's reservation had already been locked by the
time we reach panfrost_gem_pin.

Will be better to use drm_gem_shmem_object_pin() to avoid such problem
in future
Please also fix the Lima driver
