drm/nouveau: Add a dedicated mutex for the clients list
Rather than protecting the nouveau_drm clients list with the lock within the "client" nouveau_cli, add a dedicated lock to serialize access to the list. This is both clearer and necessary to avoid lockdep being upset with us when we need to iterate through all the clients in the list and potentially lock their mutex, which is the same class as the lock protecting the entire list.
