[PATCHv2] drm: fb_helper: prefer to use mode, which is not DRM_MODE_TYPE_USERDEF

commit eaf99c749d43 ("drm: Perform cmdline mode parsing during connector
initialisation") breaks HDMI output on BeagleBone Black with LG TV
(model 19LS4R-ZA) when "video=HDMI-A-1:1280x720 at 60" is specified on
the command line.

The reason is newly added mode
'"1280x720" 60 74440 1280 1336 1472 1664 720 721 724 746 0x20 0x6'
, which is added by function drm_helper_probe_add_cmdline_mode (introduced
in above mentioned commit). This mode causes TV to go black and show "No
signal" message.

When cmdline_mode is set, it is preferred to use matching mode obtained
from EDID, than mode calculated by function
drm_mode_create_from_cmdline_mode

 v2: fixed if (prefer_non_userdef) condition, which was causing infinite
     loop before.
