Currently unloading bochs_drm (after unbinding the vtconsole) results in
a warning about a leaked connector:
[drm:drm_mode_config_cleanup] *ERROR* connector Virtual-3 leaked!
While investigating a potential fix I noticed that a lot of open-coded
functionality is already implemented elsewhere, so start converting it:
bochs_fbdev_init -> drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup: trivial (similar impl).
bochs_fbdev_fini -> drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown: requires unembedding
"struct drm_framebuffer" from "struct bochs_framebuffer".
Unembedding drm_framebuffer is made easy using drm_gem_fbdev_fb_create
which can replace bochs_fbdev_destroy and custom routines in bochs_mm.c.
For this to work, the GEM object is moved into "drm_framebuffer". After
that, "bochs_framebuffer" is no longer needed and therefore removed.
Remove the unused "size" and "initialized" fields from fb, the latter is
not necessary as drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown can be called even if
bochsfb_create fails. This theory was tested by returning early and
late (just before drm_gem_fbdev_fb_create). Both scenarios fail
gracefully although the latter seems to leak the object from
bochsfb_create_object (not a regression).
Guess on the reason for the encoder leak: drm_framebuffer_cleanup was
previously used, but did not destroy much. drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown
is now used and calls drm_framebuffer_remove which does a bit more work.
Tested with 'echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind; rmmod bochs_drm'
and also with Xorg + fbdev (startx -> xterm). The latter triggered a
warning in ttm_bo_vm_open that existed before, see

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
