drm: Make drm_read() more robust against multithreaded races The current implementation of drm_read() faces a number of issues: 1. Upon an error, it consumes the event which may lead to the client blocking. 2. Upon an error, it forgets about events already copied 3. If it fails to copy a single event with O_NONBLOCK it falls into a infinite loop of reporting EAGAIN. 3. There is a race between multiple waiters and blocking reads of the events list. Here, we inline drm_dequeue_event() into drm_read() so that we can take the spinlock around the list walking and event copying, and importantly reorder the error handling to avoid the issues above.
