Emil Velikov 633873e6cb drm/vkms: provide a parent device to drm_dev_init()
Earlier commit updated the vgem driver to improve the topology, by
passing a platform device as parent to drm_dev_init(). Shortly
afterwords we updated the core function to BUG() in order to catch any
buggy drivers passing NULL as parent.

While I missed the vkms driver (as the patch predates vkms by a few
months), the BUG caught the issue within couple of hours.

Swap the drm_dev_init <> platform_device_register_simple order, to
the driver back to life.

Fixes: f08877e794 ("drm: BUG_ON if passing NULL parent to drm_dev_init")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
