It is not a refcount in the sense that there is nothing to
release/free once count reaches 0.
It is just a mechanism to not allow ccs_mode changes if
there are any active drm clients, to keep things simple.
Note that there is an EU debugger RFC series which uses
a xarray of all drm clients. Once that lands, we could
just check if that array has any elements in them instead
of maintaining a separate count.
