drm/panel: find_panel_by_fwnode() return a counted reference

This patch updates find_panel_by_fwnode() to return a reference-counted
drm_panel pointer, preventing the panel's container memory from being
released prematurely. It also updates drm_panel_remove_follower() to
balance the reference with drm_panel_put().

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does releasing the panel_lock here leave
a TOCTOU race window where panel->dev can be freed before it's used by the
caller?

If the panel's device is unregistered concurrently (e.g., via sysfs unbind
of its parent), the following sequence seems possible:

CPU1 in find_panel_by_fwnode():
    drm_panel_get(panel);
    mutex_unlock(&panel_lock);
    return panel;

CPU2 concurrently unregisters the device:
    drm_panel_remove() runs, removing the panel from panel_list.
    The device's reference count drops to zero and the struct device behind
    panel->dev is freed.

CPU1 in drm_panel_add_follower():
    get_device(panel->dev);

Since panel->dev now points to a freed device, could this cause a
use-after-free?
