drm: Don't switch fb when disabling an output

In drm_crtc_helper_set_config, we call drm_crtc_helper_set_mode which
may return early and do no operation if the crtc is to be disabled. In
this case we merrily swap to the new fb, discarding the old_fb believing
that it has been cleaned up. However, due to the early return, the
old_fb was not presented to the backend for correct reaping, and nor was
the new one - which is about to be reaped via the
drm_helper_disable_unused_functions(), leading to incorrect refcounting
of the pinned objects.
