I like that we have an _unprepare that is the inverse of the _prepare, but
since is only destroying the mutex, maybe is an unneeded indirection level?

Or do you plan to add more cleanup to that _unprepare function? Otherwise I
would just make it an inline function.

Does it have to be an exported symbol? AFAICT the only user for now is the
drm_fb_helper_fini() function, so the function could be a static inline.

And you should be able to remove this stub if you limit the scope of the helper.

No strong opinion though. So if you prefer to keep it as is, feel free to add:
