[PATCH 0/2] drm: Fix up and error handling after fbdev changes

I was trying dri-misc-next on Pi4 and getting a NULL deref as vc4
started. The cause was having missed adding DRM_FBDEV_DMA_DRIVER_OPS
to the 2711 struct drm_driver, but also showed up that the handling
in drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe could fail to call any fbdev_probe
function, and hence the NULL deref.

These two patches fix up vc4, but also throw an error if neither
driver->fbdev_probe nor funcs->fb_probe are defined.

      drm/vc4: Run default client setup for all variants.
      drm/fbdev: Ensure that one of the probe functions is defined
