simplefb gets unregister when a proper framebuffer driver comes in and
kicks it out. However the claimed clocks and regulators stay enabled
as they are only released in the platform device remove function, which
in theory would never get called.

Move the clock/regulator cleanup into the framebuffer destroy callback,
which gets called as part of the framebuffer unregister process.

Note this introduces asymmetry in how the resources are claimed and
released.

Is this called before or after the new proper framebuffer driver kicks in?
If before, it may cause glitches.

It is called by the new proper framebuffer driver's probe method,
so it can make sure that it has already claimed / enabled the
clocks/regulators before it calls remove_conlicting_framebuffers,
avoiding the glitch.
