Javier Martinez Canillas b3484d2b03 drm/fb-helper: improve DRM fbdev emulation device names
Framebuffer devices that are registered by DRM drivers for fbdev emulation
have a "drmfb" suffix in their name. But makes them to be quite confusing
for drivers that already have "drm" in their name:

$ cat /proc/fb
0 rockchipdrmdrmfb

$ cat /proc/fb
0 simpledrmdrmfb

Also, there isn't a lot of value in adding these "drmfb" suffices to their
names, since users shouldn't really care if the FB devices were registered
by a real fbdev driver or a DRM driver using the fbdev emulation.

What programs should be interested about is if there's a DRM device, and
there are better ways to query that info than reading this procfs entry.

So let's just remove the suffix, which leads to much better device names:

$ cat /proc/fb
0 rockchipdrm

$ cat /proc/fb
0 simpledrm

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.
