[PATCH v2 2/2] gpu: host1x: Stop open-coding of_device_uevent()

There is apparently no reasons to open-code of_device_uevent() besides:
- The helper receives a struct device while we want to use the of_node
  member of the struct device *parent*.
- of_device_uevent() could not be called by modules because of a missing
  EXPORT_SYMBOL*().

In practice, the former point is not very constraining, just calling
of_device_uevent(dev->parent, ...) would have made the trick.

The latter point is more an observation rather than a real blocking
point because nothing prevented of_uevent() (called by the inline
function of_device_uevent()) to be exported to modules. In practice,
this helper is now exported, so nothing prevent us from using
of_device_uevent() anymore.

Let's use the core helper directly instead of open-coding it.
