drm/vc4: Fix false positive WARN() backtrace on refcount_inc() usage
With CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL enabled, refcount_inc() complains when it's passed a refcount object that has its counter set to 0. In this driver, this is a valid use case since we want to increment ->usecnt only when the BO object starts to be used by real HW components and this is definitely not the case when the BO is created. Fix the problem by using refcount_inc_not_zero() instead of refcount_inc() and fallback to refcount_set(1) when refcount_inc_not_zero() returns false. Note that this 2-steps operation is not racy here because the whole section is protected by a mutex which guarantees that the counter does not change between the refcount_inc_not_zero() and refcount_set() calls.
