The driver uses kfree() to release the resource allocated by
framebuffer_alloc(), which does not match.
Use framebuffer_release() instead to fix it.

For pxa168fb driver framebuffer_release() does only kfree() so
there is no real breakage currently. Lets fix it anyway so it
won't break in the future.
