drm/probe-helpers: Drop locking from poll_enable
It was only needed to protect the connector_list walking, see

drm/probe-helper: Grab mode_config.mutex in poll_init/enable
Unfortunately the commit message of that patch fails to mention that
the new locking check was for the connector_list.
But that requirement disappeared in

drm: Convert all helpers to drm_connector_list_iter
and so we can drop this again.
This fixes a locking inversion on nouveau, where the rpm code needs to
re-enable. But in other places the rpm_get() calls are nested within
the big modeset locks.
While at it, also improve the kerneldoc for these two functions a
notch.
v2: Update the kerneldoc even more to explain that these functions
can't be called concurrently, or bad things happen (Chris).
