drm/vmwgfx: Allow dropped masters render-node like access on legacy nodes v2
Applications like gnome-shell may try to render after dropping master
privileges. Since the driver should now be safe against this scenario,
allow those applications to use their legacy node like a render node.
v2: Add missing return statement.
