[RESEND PATCH v2] drm/mxsfb: Remove generic DRM drivers in probe function

[Dario Binacchi]

Use aperture helpers to remove all generic graphics drivers before
loading mxsfb. Makes mxsfb compatible with simpledrm.

Changes in v2:
- Use aperture_remove_all_conflicting_devices() instead of
  drm_aperture_remove_framebuffers().
