Some drm drivers populate their fb_ops with fb_sys_read/write fb sysfs
ops.
Create a drm_fb_helper function that wraps around these calls.
This is part of an effort to prevent drm drivers from calling fbdev
functions directly, in order to make fbdev emulation a top level drm
option.

I think this check here can never fail (if there's no fbdev you can't call
this function), I don't think we need it. Even for drivers which call this
themselves (like qxl/udl) they only call it from fbdev code.
That's a good point. I'll remove the 'if (info)' check.
qxl/udl don't seem to call the fb sysfs funcs. So I think it's okay.
