[PATCH 2/2] drm/radeon/kms: Skip ACPI call to ATIF when possible

I am under the impression that it only makes sense to call the ATIF
method if the graphics device has an ACPI handle attached. So we could
skip the call altogether if there is no such handle.

This is only tested on a system where the Radeon device has no ACPI
handle and there is no ATIF method. This should also be tested on
systems with ATIF, presumably laptops.
