Atm the EFI FB platform driver gets a runtime PM reference for the
associated GFX PCI device during probing the EFI FB platform device and
releases it only when the platform device gets unbound.
When fbcon switches to the FB provided by the PCI device's driver (for
instance i915/drmfb), the EFI FB will get only unregistered without the
EFI FB platform device getting unbound, keeping the runtime PM reference
acquired during the platform device probing. This reference will prevent
the PCI driver from runtime suspending the device.
Fix this by releasing the RPM reference from the EFI FB's destroy hook,
called when the FB gets unregistered.
While at it assert that pm_runtime_get_sync() didn't fail.
v2:
- Move pm_runtime_get_sync() before register_framebuffer() to avoid its
race wrt. efifb_destroy()->pm_runtime_put(). (Daniel)
- Assert that pm_runtime_get_sync() didn't fail.
- Clarify commit message wrt. platform/PCI device/driver and driver
removal vs. device unbinding.
Fixes:

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.
