drm/radeon: Do not implement mode_set_base_atomic callback
Remove the implementation of the CRTC helper mode_set_base_atomic
from radeon. It pretends to provide mode setting for kdb debugging,
but has been broken for some time.
Kdb output has been supported only for non-atomic mode setting since
commit
9c79e0b1d096 ("drm/fb-helper: Give up on kgdb for atomic drivers")
from 2017.
While radeon provides non-atomic mode setting, kdb assumes that the GEM
buffer object is at a fixed location in video memory. This assumption
currently blocks radeon from converting to generic fbdev emulation.
Fbdev-ttm helpers use a shadow buffer with a movable GEM buffer object.
Triggering kdb does therefore not update the display.
Another problem is that the current implementation does not handle
USB keyboard input. Therefore a serial terminal is required. Then when
continuing from the debugger, radeon fails with an error:

and the system hangs.
Support for kdb feels pretty much broken. Hence remove the whole kdb
support from radeon.
