The problem is that drm_dev_unregister() sets the device as unplugged
and if drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() is called afterwards it's not
allowed to touch hardware.

I know it's the wrong order, but the only way to do it in the right
order is to have a separate function that sets unplugged:

	drm_dev_unregister();
	drm_atomic_helper_shutdown();
	drm_dev_set_unplugged();
