Convert drivers to use drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup/teardown()
-----------------------------------------------------------
Most drivers can use drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup() except maybe:
- amdgpu which has special logic to decide whether to call
drm_helper_disable_unused_functions()
- armada which isn't atomic and doesn't call
drm_helper_disable_unused_functions()
- i915 which calls drm_fb_helper_initial_config() in a worker
Drivers that use drm_framebuffer_remove() to clean up the fbdev framebuffer can
probably use drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown().
