drm/client: Fix: drm_client_new: Don't require DRM to be registered

Commit 894a677f ("drm/cma-helper: Use the generic fbdev emulation")
broke almost all drivers that use the CMA helper.

The reason is that drm_client_new() requires that the DRM device has
been registered, but the drivers register fbdev before registering DRM.

Remove the requirement that DRM should be registered when creating a
new client.
