Once we create the handle, the handle owns the reference. Currently
nothing was doing anything with the shmem ptr after the handle was
created, but let's change drm_gem_shmem_create_with_handle() to not
return the pointer, so-as to not encourage problematic use of this
function in the future. As a bonus, it makes the code a bit cleaner.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
