ENGR00229473 elcdif fb: fix lcd framebuffer potential recursive locking

---------------------------------------------
swapper/1 is trying to acquire lock:
 ((fb_notifier_list).rwsem){.+.+.+}, at: [<80088758>] __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x88

 but task is already holding lock:
  ((fb_notifier_list).rwsem){.+.+.+}, at: [<80088758>] __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x44/0x88

  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

 lock((fb_notifier_list).rwsem);

*** DEADLOCK ***

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

In fact, we don't need support dynamically switch the framebuffer.
so, we only need do once registeration in probe function.
