Ben Skeggs ea94c8e217 drm/nouveau: move allocation of root client out of nouveau_cli_init()
drm->master isn't really a nouveau_cli, and is mostly just used to get
at an nvif_mmu object to implement a hack around issues with the ioctl
interface to nvkm.

Later patches in this series allocate nvif_device/mmu objects in
nouveau_drm directly, removing the need for master.

A pending series to remove the "ioctl" layer between DRM and NVKM
removes the need for the above-mentioned hack entirely.

The only other member of drm->master that's needed is the nvif_client,
and is a dependency of device/mmu.  So the first step is to move its
allocation out of code handling nouveau_cli init.

v2:
- modified slightly due to the addition of tegra/pci cleanup patches
v3:
- move nvif init below drm_dev_alloc() to avoid changing nouveau_name()
