[RFC v2 6/6] drm: zap mmaps for dead devices

Once a DRM device is unregistered, user-space must not access any existing
mmaps, anymore. As we cannot rely on this, we now zap all of them in
drm_dev_unregister().

Any driver which wants to support that needs to protect their fault()
and mmap() handlers via drm_dev_get_active(), otherwise users can create
new mmaps after/during drm_dev_unregister().
