drm: Always reject drm_vblank_get() after drm_vblank_off()



Make sure drm_vblank_get() never succeeds when called between
drm_vblank_off() and drm_vblank_on(). Borrow a trick from the
old drm_vblank_{pre,post}_modeset() functions and just bump
the refcount in drm_vblank_off() and drop it in drm_vblank_on().

When drm_vblank_get() encounters a >0 refcount and the vblank
interrupt is already disabled it will simply return -EINVAL.

Hopefully the use of inmodeset won't conflict badly with
drm_vblank_{pre,post}_modeset().

For i915 there's a window between drm_vblank_off() and marking the
crtc as inactive where the current code still allows drm_vblank_get().

v2: Describe what drm_vblank_get() does to explain how
    a simple refcount bump manages to fix things (Daniel)
