[PATCH v4 1/5] drm: fix null ptr dereference in drm_master_release

drm_master_release can be called on a drm_file without a master, which
results in a null ptr dereference of file_priv->master->magic_map. The
three cases are:
1. Error path in drm_open_helper
drm_open():
drm_open_helper():
drm_master_open():
drm_new_set_master(); <--- returns -ENOMEM,
drm_file.master not set
drm_file_free():
drm_master_release(); <--- NULL ptr dereference
(file_priv->master->magic_map)
2. Error path in mock_drm_getfile
mock_drm_getfile():
anon_inode_getfile(); <--- returns error, drm_file.master not set
drm_file_free():
drm_master_release(); <--- NULL ptr dereference
(file_priv->master->magic_map)
3. In drm_client_close, as drm_client_open doesn't set up a master
drm_file.master is set up in drm_open_helper through the call to
drm_master_open, so we mirror it with a call to drm_master_release in
drm_close_helper, and remove drm_master_release from drm_file_free to
avoid the null ptr dereference.
