drm/cirrus: Use drm_framebuffer_put to avoid kernel oops in clean-up
[ Upstream commit abf7b30d ] In the Cirrus driver, the regular clean-up code also performs the clean-up of a failed initialization. If the fbdev's framebuffer was not initialized, the clean-up will fail within drm_framebuffer_unregister_private. Booting with cirrus.bpp=16 triggers this bug. The framebuffer is currently stored directly within struct cirrus_fbdev. To fix the bug, we turn it into a pointer that is only set for initialized framebuffers. The fbdev's clean-up code skips uninitialized framebuffers. The memory for struct drm_framebuffer is allocated dynamically. This requires additional error handling within cirrusfb_create. The framebuffer clean-up is now performed by drm_framebuffer_put, which also frees the data strcuture's memory.
