Clarify the relation between drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup/teardown. Clarify
requirements for the new generic fbdev emulation API and log some more
details in case the driver does something wrong. Fix related typos.

Hm, drm_fb_helper_ would be the OCD prefix we use everywhere, but better
to make the docs match the code. Feel free to throw a rename patch on top.

This last line is misleading, since every drm device is called with
drm_dev_register(). It's just not all called by driver code directly.
With this line removed:

I'll leave it to Gerd to apply this all.
