Noralf Trønnes 6e1490cf43 drm/fb-helper: generic: Fix setup error path
If register_framebuffer() fails during fbdev setup we will leak the
framebuffer, the GEM buffer and the shadow buffer for defio. This is
because drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup() just calls drm_fb_helper_fini() on
error not taking into account that register_framebuffer() can fail.

Since the generic emulation uses DRM client for its framebuffer and
backing buffer in addition to a shadow buffer, it's necessary to open code
drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup() to properly handle the error path.

Error cleanup is removed from .fb_probe and is handled by one function for
all paths.

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.
