Change locking policy of mmap() callback, making exporters responsible for handling dma-buf reservation locking. Previous locking policy stated that dma-buf is locked for both importers and exporters by the dma-buf core, which caused a deadlock problem for DRM drivers in a case of self-imported dma-bufs which required to take the lock from the DRM exporter side.

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.
