drm/vmwgfx: Fix a layout race condition
This fixes a layout update race condition. We make sure the crtc mutex is locked before we dereference crtc->state. Otherwise the state might change under us. Since now we're already holding the crtc mutexes when reading the gui coordinates, protect them with the crtc mutexes rather than with the requested_layout mutex.
