[PATCH 1/2] video: fbdev: Use framebuffer_release instead of kfree to free a frame buffer

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Thu Dec 10 2020 - 09:52:24 EST


Use 'framebuffer_release()' instead of 'kfree()' to undo a
'framebuffer_alloc()' call, both in the error handling path of the probe
function and in remove function.
