Introduce a device-managed variant of register_framebuffer() which
automatically unregisters the framebuffer on device destruction.
This can simplify the error handling and resource management in drivers.

Helge, I didn't document the function devm_unregister_framebuffer() as
it is only an internal helper and will ever only used by one user,
similar to other helpers in fbmem.c.

Looks good.
Sorry for the extra effort necessary.

I double check it and am decently sure it's the same issue.
It tries to unregister the framebuffer but then notices that it never
was registered in the first place.
