Peter Wu 00eb5b0da8 drm/fb-helper: fix leaks in error path of drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup
After drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup calls drm_fb_helper_init,
"dev->fb_helper" will be initialized (and thus drm_fb_helper_fini will
have some effect). After that, drm_fb_helper_initial_config is called
which may call the "fb_probe" driver callback.

This driver callback may call drm_fb_helper_defio_init (as is done by
drm_fb_helper_generic_probe) or set a framebuffer (as is done by bochs)
as documented. These are normally cleaned up on exit by
drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown which also calls drm_fb_helper_fini.

If an error occurs after "fb_probe", but before setup is complete, then
calling just drm_fb_helper_fini will leak resources. This was triggered
by df2052cc92 ("bochs: convert to drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup/teardown"):

This can be reproduced with QEMU and CONFIG_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN=n.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
