drm: Measure Self Refresh Entry/Exit times to avoid thrashing

Currently the self refresh idle timer is a const set by the crtc. This
is fine if the self refresh entry/exit times are well-known for all
panels used on that crtc. However panels and workloads can vary quite a
bit, and a timeout which works well for one doesn't work well for
another.

In the extreme, if the timeout is too short we could get in a situation
where the self refresh exits are taking so long we queue up a self refresh
entry before the exit commit is even finished.

This patch changes the idle timeout to a moving average of the entry
times + a moving average of exit times + the crtc constant.

This patch was tested on rockchip, with a kevin CrOS panel the idle
delay averages out to about ~235ms (35 entry + 100 exit + 100 const). On
the same board, the bob panel idle delay lands around ~340ms (90 entry
+ 150 exit + 100 const).

WRT the dedicated mutex in self_refresh_data, it would be nice if we
could rely on drm_crtc.mutex to protect the average times, but there are
a few reasons why a separate lock is a better choice:
- We can't rely on drm_crtc.mutex being held if we're doing a nonblocking
  commit
- We can't grab drm_crtc.mutex since drm_modeset_lock() doesn't tell us
  whether the lock was already held in the acquire context (it eats
  -EALREADY), so we can't tell if we should drop it or not
- We don't need such a heavy-handed lock for what we're trying to do,
  commit ordering doesn't matter, so a point-of-use lock will be less
  contentious
