[PATCH v2 02/10] drm/client: Add hotplug_failed flag

[Thomas Zimmermann]

Signal failed hotplugging with a flag in struct drm_client_dev. If set,
the client helpers will not further try to set up the fbdev display.

This used to be signalled with a combination of cleared pointers in
struct drm_fb_helper, which prevents us from initializing these pointers
early after allocation.

The change also harmonizes behavior among DRM clients. Additional DRM
clients will now handle failed hotplugging like fbdev does.
