Subject: [PATCH] drm/rockchip: kick firmware-based framebuffer when initializing

Since U-Boot now supports EFI and FB passing via EFI GOP, when booting
rockchip SoCs via EFI, a EFI FB is available. However, currently when
re-initializing display pipeline, the EFI FB is not removed, lead to
fbcon not working (because the EFI FB is no longer bound to the display
pipeline although it's still /dev/fb0 and fbcon is bound to it).

Add some code for removing firmware-based FB when initializing KMS of
rockchipdrm.

Tested on Pinebook Pro (RK3399) with U-Boot patchset for initializing
eDP display applied.

Hi

I think we already fixed this at [1]. Apparently no on epicked it up. If
you awant to test, I'll add your Tested-by before merging the patch.

Best regards
Thomas
