drm: avoid blocking in drm_clients_info's rcu section

Inside drm_clients_info, the rcu_read_lock is held to lock
pid_task()->comm. However, within this protected section, a call to
drm_is_current_master is made, which involves a mutex lock in a future
patch. However, this is illegal because the mutex lock might block
while in the RCU read-side critical section.

Since drm_is_current_master isn't protected by rcu_read_lock, we avoid
this by moving it out of the RCU critical section.

The following report came from intel-gfx ci's
igt@debugfs_test@read_all_entries testcase:
