drm/amdkfd: Fix lock dependency warning with srcu
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.5.0-kfd-yangp #2289 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
kworker/0:2/996 is trying to acquire lock:
(srcu){.+.+}-{0:0}, at: __synchronize_srcu+0x5/0x1a0
but task is already holding lock:
((work_completion)(&svms->deferred_list_work)){+.+.}-{0:0}, at:
process_one_work+0x211/0x560
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of:
srcu --> &info->lock#2 --> (work_completion)(&svms->deferred_list_work)
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

---- ----
lock((work_completion)(&svms->deferred_list_work));
lock(&info->lock#2);
lock((work_completion)(&svms->deferred_list_work));
sync(srcu);
