The deadlock can occur due to a recursive lock acquisition of
`cros_typec_altmode_data::mutex`.
The call chain is as follows:
1. cros_typec_altmode_work() acquires the mutex
2. typec_altmode_vdm() -> dp_altmode_vdm() ->
3. typec_altmode_exit() -> cros_typec_altmode_exit()
4. cros_typec_altmode_exit() attempts to acquire the mutex again
To prevent this, defer the `typec_altmode_exit()` call by scheduling
it rather than calling it directly from within the mutex-protected
context.
