Switch vgem to non-platform driver

Project Member Reported by marcheu@google.com, Apr 15 2016

Issue description

Upstream has converted vgem to _not_ be a platform driver. However we find vgem through /sys/bus/platform in mesa and in drm-tests (and possibly other places I haven't thought of yet).

I stumbled upon it while looking at 4.4. For now we are reverting 4.4 to use vgem as a platform driver, but our user space needs to learn to deal with this.

As drm-tests are converted to bsdrm, they use bs_drm_open_vgem, which opens vgem by checking each card's drmVersion->name for "vgem". Mesa can probably use a similar approach.
