The driver is calling framebuffer_release() in its .remove callback, but this will cause the struct fb_info to be freed too early. Since it could be that a reference is still hold to it if user-space opened the fbdev.
This would lead to a use-after-free error if the framebuffer device was unregistered but later a user-space process tries to close the fbdev fd.
The correct thing to do is to only unregister the framebuffer in the driver's .remove callback, but do any cleanup in the fb_ops.fb_destroy.
