Calling drm_connector_cleanup() should only be done via the free_cb =>
.destroy path, which cleans up the struct drm_connector only when the
refcount drops to zero.

A cleanup done with a refcount higher than 0 can result from buggy code,
e.g. by doing cleanup directly in the drivers teardown code. Serious
trouble can happen if this happens, so warn about it.
