drm/nouveau/nvkm: clear use.enabled when subdev init fails

On Kepler boards without the video decode falcon firmware installed
(msvld/mspdec/msppp), every other VA-API decode attempt binds to an
engine with no ucode loaded. The submitted work never completes, which
leads to a context switch timeout, a channel recovery that cannot reset
the engine, and eviction waits on fences that never signal. The process
ends up stuck in D state, or killed by SIGBUS when it touches a buffer
evicted after the wait times out:

  msvld: unable to load firmware data
  msvld: init failed, -19
  fifo: SCHED_ERROR 0a [CTXSW_TIMEOUT]
  vo[5444]: channel 14 killed!
  WARNING: drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/fifo/runl.c:117 at nvkm_runl_rc+0x2a4/0x3b0 [nouveau]
  [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
  WARNING: drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_bo.c:1092 at nouveau_bo_move_ntfy.part.0+0x9b/0x100 [nouveau]

Tracing nvkm_subdev_ref() and nvkm_subdev_init_() shows the pattern:
a reference taken with enabled=0 runs nvkm_falcon_init(), which
returns -ENODEV; the next reference sees enabled=1 and succeeds
without running it.

Clear use.enabled when init() fails, so that every later reference
retries init and fails cleanly.  The other readers of use.enabled are
fini() handlers that use it to skip teardown, which they now also do
after a failed init().

On a GK107 (Quadro K1100M) without video firmware, playing H.264 with
mpv --hwdec=auto: without this patch the GPU channel is killed within a
minute and mpv hangs; with it, VA-API decoder creation fails, mpv falls
back to software decoding, and no faults are logged.
