[ Upstream commit 353d9214682e65c55cdffad8c82139a3321c5f13 ]

During execution of the worker that's used to register rpmsg devices
we are safely locking the channels mutex but, when creating a new
endpoint for such devices, we are registering a IPI on the SCP, which
then makes the SCP to trigger an interrupt, lock its own mutex and in
turn register more subdevices.
This creates a circular locking dependency situation, as the mtk_rpmsg
channels_lock will then depend on the SCP IPI lock.

To solve this, simply unlock the channels_lock mutex before calling
mtk_rpmsg_register_device() and relock it right after, as safety is
still ensured by the locking mechanism that happens right after
through SCP.
