[Nouveau] [PATCH] drm/nouveau: reorder nouveau_drm_device_fini

I think there are no direct issues with initialization in the state how it
is now. I suspect it's because "drm_kms_helper_poll_enable()" starts the
first worker thread with a delay, which gives enough time to initialize
required resources. I changed the initialization part to keep it consistent
with the finish part, which is the one causing troubles.

I am not sure where I could move "drm_kms_helper_poll_enable/disable()",
since it is defined in "drm/drm_probe_helper.c", which is only included in
"nouveau_display.c" and "nouveau_connector.c". Both creating a new function
in "nouveau_display.c", and including "probe_helper.h" and using
poll_enable in a different file like "nouveau_fbcon.c" seem like too big
changes for such small fix. I don't know.

Can this new proposed order break something in the finish part as well?
Maybe it would be just better to change the order of "nouveau_drm_finish"
and keep the current order of "noueau_drm_init"?
