[PATCH 1/4] drm/plane: Make init functions panic consitently and explicitly

All of the current plane init / allocation functions behave slightly
differently when it comes to argument sanitizing:

 - drm_universal_plane_init() implicitly panics if the drm_device
   pointer or the drm_plane_funcs pointer are NULL, and calls WARN_ON if
   there's no destroy implementation but goes on with the initialization.

 - drm_universal_plane_alloc() implicitly panics if the drm_device
   pointer is NULL, and will call WARN_ON and return an error if the
   drm_plane_funcs pointer is NULL.

 - drmm_universal_plane_alloc() implicitly panics if the drm_device
   pointer is NULL, and will call WARN_ON and return an error if the
   drm_plane_funcs pointer is NULL or if there is a destroy
   implementation.

The current consensus is that the drm_device pointer, the
drm_plane_funcs pointer, and the drm_plane pointer if relevant, should
be considered pre-requisite and the function should panic if we
encounter such a situation, and that returning an error in such a
situation is not welcome.

Let's make all functions consider those three pointers to be always set
and explicitly panic if they aren't. And let's document that behaviour
too.
