A probe-time deadlock can occur between the dequeue worker and
drm_client_register(). During probe, drm_client_register() holds
clientlist_mutex and calls the fbdev hotplug callback, which triggers an
atomic commit that ends up sleeping in virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_sgs()
waiting for virtqueue space. The dequeue worker that would free that
space calls virtio_gpu_cmd_get_display_info_cb(), which invokes
drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event() -> drm_client_dev_hotplug(), attempting
to acquire the same clientlist_mutex. Since wake_up() is only called
after the resp_cb loop, the probe thread is never woken and both threads
deadlock.

Fix this by deferring the hotplug notification from
virtio_gpu_cmd_get_display_info_cb() to a separate work item. The
display data (outputs[i].info) is still updated synchronously in the
callback, and the deferred work only triggers a re-probe notification to
DRM clients.

client")
