firmware: coreboot: store owner from modules with coreboot_driver_register()



Modules registering driver with coreboot_driver_register() might
forget to set .owner field.  The field is used by some of other kernel
parts for reference counting (try_module_get()), so it is expected that
drivers will set it.

Solve the problem by moving this task away from the drivers to the core
code, just like we did for platform_driver in
commit 9447057e ("platform_device: use a macro instead of
platform_driver_register").

Moving the .owner setting code to the core this effectively fixes
missing .owner in framebuffer-coreboot, memconsole-coreboot and vpd
drivers.
