drm: Allow determining if current task is output poll worker
commit 25c058ccaf2ebbc3e250ec1e199e161f91fe27d4 upstream. Introduce a helper to determine if the current task is an output poll worker. This allows us to fix a long-standing deadlock in several DRM drivers wherein the ->runtime_suspend callback waits for the output poll worker to finish and the worker in turn calls a ->detect callback which waits for runtime suspend to finish. The ->detect callback is invoked from multiple call sites and waiting for runtime suspend to finish is the correct thing to do except if it's executing in the context of the worker. v2: Expand kerneldoc to specifically mention deadlock between output poll worker and autosuspend worker as use case.
