[RFC 3/7] drm/fb-helper: Don't restore if fbdev is not in use

Keep track of fbdev users and only restore fbdev in
drm_fb_helper_restore_fbdev_mode_unlocked() when in use. This avoids
fbdev being restored in drm_driver.last_close when nothing uses it.
Additionally fbdev is turned off when the last user is closing.
fbcon is a user in this context.
