drm_connector_helper_funcs.detect_ctx() is expected to propagate -EDEADLK so that context owners, e.g. drm_helper_probe_detect_ctx(), can perform the required backoff and retry.
vc4_hdmi_handle_hotplug() instead runs its own retry loop and calls drm_modeset_backoff() on an acquire context it does not own. This drops all locks in the context, including connection_mutex held by the core. Drop the local retry logic and propagate -EDEADLK to the caller instead. This aligns VC4 with the expected detect_ctx() semantics.
