drm/crtc: fix connector reference counting mismatch in drm_crtc_helper_set_config

Since commit 0955c1250e96 ("drm/crtc: take references to connectors used
in a modeset. (v2)"), the reference counts of all connectors in the
drm_mode_set given to drm_crtc_helper_set_config are incremented, and then
the reference counts of all connectors are decremented on success, but in a
temporary copy of the connector structure. This leads to the following
error after the first modeset on imx-drm:

    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004
    pgd = ad8c4000

    ---[ end trace 9a7257572ccacb16 ]---

Only the reference count of connectors that weren't previously bound to
an encoder should be incremented after a call to drm_crtc_helper_set_config.
And only the reference count of connectors that were previously bound to
an encoder and are unbound afterwards should ever be decremented.
The reference counts of the temporary copies in the save_connectors
should not be touched at all.

This patch fixes the above error by only incrementing the reference count
of those connectors in the set that are initially not bound to any encoder,
and also by restoring the reference count of only those connectors in the
set in the failure case.

"Note that this can only be hit when fbdev emulation is disabled, since
then the refcount drops from 1 to 0 and we call the connector destroy
functions on the backup copy, which eventually results in tears. With
fbdev emulation the refcount only goes down from 2 to 1 ever. And since we
unconditionally increment the refcount on the real object, the refcount of
that will slowly increase. The backup connector's refcount doesn't matter,
since we kfree() that either way in the end of
drm_crtc_helper_set_config()."
