drm/bridge: Fix unlocked list_del in drm_bridge_add()

This commit addresses a list corruption issue in drm_bridge_add() by wrapping 
the bridge_lingering_list removal sequence with the bridge_lock mutex. It 
prevents concurrent modifications from drm_bridge_remove() and debugfs walks.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but will this cause a kernel panic for legacy 
bridge drivers that allocate struct drm_bridge using kzalloc() instead of 
devm_drm_bridge_alloc()?

For a zero-initialized bridge struct, the list_empty() check evaluates to 
false because the uninitialized list_head pointers are NULL, and NULL is not 
equal to &bridge->list. 

This means list_del_init() will execute and unconditionally dereference the 
NULL prev and next pointers, crashing the kernel during device probe.

Is it possible to check if the list_head is actually initialized before 
testing if it is empty, or handle legacy zero-initialized bridges safely 
to avoid breaking the probe path on affected platforms?
