Sergey Suloev reported a crash happening in drm_client_dev_hotplug()
when fbdev had failed to register.

The reason for this is that drm_fbdev_cma_init() removes the drm_client
when fbdev registration fails, but it doesn't remove the client from the
drm_device client list. So the client list now has a pointer that points
into the unknown and we have a 'use after free' situation.
It was decided during the drm_client API discussions that a client should
not be allowed to remove itself. This was based on the experience with
the fbdev/fbcon locking horror show.
So the solution is to just leave the drm_client hanging around doing
nothing (it doesn't have any callbacks), and let it be removed when
drm_dev_unregister() is called.

This bug is in 4.19 so it should go into drm-misc-fixes right?
(I have never applied a fix before)
