On drm_driver->last_close the generic fbdev emulation will restore fbdev regardless of it being used or not. This is a problem for e-ink displays which don't want to be overwritten with zeroes when DRM userspace closes.
Amend this by adding an open counter to track use in order to know when to restore.
v1: Avoid special-casing and move the check to drm_fbdev_client_restore() (Daniel Vetter)

I was tied up in my previous attempt to solve this which predated the generic emulation, so I failed to see that I could solve this within the scope of the generic fbdev.
Still kinda annoying that between this and drm_fb_helper_is_bound we'll have mutliple ways to figure out who owns the fbdev. And the special-casing is still there, it's just moved around - it still only works for drivers using the new client helpers.
The other issue with not putting this into is_bound() is that we now have different rules between hotplug and restore (lastclose is only called when there's not master and hence is_bound() will return true). So if you lastclose, it won't be restored, but if you then plug something it, it will. So I still think we should fix this consistently for all drivers (and yeah that means rolling out fb_open/release callbacks), and also consistently between hotplug and lastclose.
Ok, I haven't got the necessary steam to tackle this broader scope right now. I'll deal with it if a bug report for the tinydrm/repaper driver shows up. Not sure if anyone is actually using DRM userspace with that driver.
Btw, your tweet gave me a good laugh: "fbdev: everything is horrible"
