drm/nouveau: Fix cleanup bug in nouveau_drm_device_new()

This commit converts the allocation of struct nouveau_drm to use devres
to simplify the cleanup path.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but doesn't tying the allocation
of struct nouveau_drm to the physical device's devres lifecycle preserve a
use-after-free condition?

If a user opens the DRM device, allocates a GEM object, and holds onto it
across a device unbind (such as a module unload or hot-unplug), the device
removal will trigger devres cleanup and free this devm_kzalloc'd memory.

Later, when the user drops the last reference to the GEM object, the DRM core
cleans it up and eventually calls nouveau_gem_object_del(). This function
derives the nouveau_drm pointer from the GEM object's embedded TTM buffer
object and dereferences it, accessing the freed memory. TTM core functions
will also access the dangling ttm_device embedded in the freed nouveau_drm
struct.

Would it be safer to use drmm_kzalloc() here so the driver-private data lives
exactly as long as the drm_device refcount?
