[PATCH] Revert "ARM: bcm283x: Switch V3D over to using the PM driver instead of firmware."

Since release of the new BCM2835 PM driver there has been several reports
of V3D probing issues. This is caused by timeouts during powering-up the
GRAFX PM domain:

  bcm2835-power: Timeout waiting for grafx power OK

I was able to reproduce this reliable on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ after setting
force_turbo=1 in the firmware configuration. Since there are no issues
using the firmware PM driver with the same setup, there must be an issue
in the BCM2835 PM driver.

Unfortunately there hasn't been much progress in identifying the root cause
since June (mostly in the lack of documentation), so i decided to switch
back until the issue in the BCM2835 PM driver is fixed.
