An unfortunate sequence of events, but it turns out there is a valid
usecase for being able to free/decouple the driver objects before they
are freed by the DRM core. In particular, if we have a pointer into a
drm core object from inside a driver object, that pointer needs to be
nerfed *before* it is freed so that concurrent access (e.g. debugfs)
does not following the dangling pointer.

The legacy marker was adding in the code movement from drp_fops.c to
drm_file.c
