    ms/drm/virtio: fix deadlock in display_info_cb by removing hotplug from dequeue worker
    
    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 removing the hotplug notification from
    virtio_gpu_cmd_get_display_info_cb(). The display data (outputs[i].info)
    is still updated synchronously in the callback.
    
    For the init path, drm_client_register() already fires an initial
    hotplug when the client is registered, which picks up the connector
    state updated by display_info_cb.
    
    For the runtime config_changed path, add a wait_event_timeout() in
    config_changed_work_func() so that display_info_cb updates the connector
    data before the hotplug notification is sent. Also replace
    drm_helper_hpd_irq_event() with drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event() since
    virtio-gpu never calls drm_kms_helper_poll_init() and thus
    drm_helper_hpd_irq_event() always returns false without doing anything.

    (cherry picked from commit d1b894c5bbb3fee0012bd14356286dc2384e8213)
    
    VHI hit the runtime variant of this deadlock in a compute test run.
    An almalinux-10 guest froze mid-boot, roughly once in 20 boots, with
    the serial console and the VGA output both stuck a moment after fbcon
    came up. The dequeue worker gets past clientlist_mutex there and
    blocks one frame further in, on the modeset ww_mutex held by the fbdev
    damage worker:
    
      kworker/0:1  Workqueue: events drm_fb_helper_damage_work
        drm_fb_helper_damage_work -> drm_fbdev_shmem_helper_fb_dirty
          -> drm_atomic_helper_dirtyfb      holds the modeset ww_mutexes
            -> drm_atomic_commit -> virtio_gpu_primary_plane_update
              -> virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_sgs  waits for ctrl-vq descriptors
    
      kworker/0:3  Workqueue: events virtio_gpu_dequeue_ctrl_func
        virtio_gpu_dequeue_ctrl_func        the only code that frees them
          -> drm_client_dev_hotplug -> drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event
            -> drm_client_modeset_probe -> drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx
                                          waits for the same ww_mutexes
    
    Both waits are uninterruptible, so the guest never recovers. The
    console dies with it: setfont blocks in drm_fb_helper_pan_display
    while holding console_lock, and systemd blocks on console_sem in
    tty_open, which is where the boot stops.
    
    Cherry-pick applied cleanly, no conflicts.
