Don't assert held dma-buf reservation lock on memory mapping of exported buffer. We're going to change dma-buf mmap() locking policy such that exporters will have to handle the lock. The previous locking policy caused deadlock problem for DRM drivers in a case of self-imported dma-bufs once these drivers are moved to use reservation lock universally. The problem is solved by moving the lock down to exporters. This patch prepares udmabuf for the locking policy update.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
