When closing the DRM device while a vblank is pending, we access

This can be triggered somewhat reliably with:

modetest -M rockchip -v -s ...

Add a preclose hook to the driver so that we can discard any pending
vblank events when the device is closed.

Looks good for me, applied into my drm-fixes.

Thanks for the fix.
