Noralf Trønnes 1ee57d4d75 drm: Fix drm_release() and device unplug
If userspace has open fd(s) when drm_dev_unplug() is run, it will result
in drm_dev_unregister() being called twice. First in drm_dev_unplug() and
then later in drm_release() through the call to drm_put_dev().

Since userspace already holds a ref on drm_device through the drm_minor,
it's not necessary to add extra ref counting based on no open file
handles. Instead just drm_dev_put() unconditionally in drm_dev_unplug().

We now have this:
- Userpace holds a ref on drm_device as long as there's open fd(s)
- The driver holds a ref on drm_device as long as it's bound to the
  struct device

When both sides are done with drm_device, it is released.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
