drm: remove master fd restriction on mode setting getters
Its useful to be able to call the mode setting getter ioctls. Not requiring master fd, enables writing a simple program which can query the state of the video system. Since these ioctls are only "getters" there is no security or synchronization issues which would require master fd. Opening an new fd is already protected by the file permissions on the device file.
