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.
