    drm/fb-helper: Remove drm_fb_helper_unprepare() from drm_fb_helper_fini() · 3fb1f62f
    Thomas Zimmermann authored
    Move drm_fb_helper_unprepare() from drm_fb_helper_fini() into the
    calling fbdev implementation. Avoids a possible stale mutex with
    generic fbdev code.
    
    As indicated by its name, drm_fb_helper_prepare() prepares struct
    drm_fb_helper before setting up the fbdev support with a call to
    drm_fb_helper_init(). In legacy fbdev emulation, this happens next
    to each other. If successful, drm_fb_helper_fini() later tear down
    the fbdev device and also unprepare via drm_fb_helper_unprepare().
    
    Generic fbdev emulation prepares struct drm_fb_helper immediately
    after allocating the instance. It only calls drm_fb_helper_init()
    as part of processing a hotplug event. If the hotplug-handling fails,
    it runs drm_fb_helper_fini(). This unprepares the fb-helper instance
    and the next hotplug event runs on stale data.
    
    Solve this by moving drm_fb_helper_unprepare() from drm_fb_helper_fini()
    into the fbdev implementations. Call it right before freeing the
    fb-helper instance.
