Hm, why would it not work for the hotplug case? _is_bound already checks
dev->master (but with races, unlike this here). And the other checks are
various levels of cargo-culting. dev->master is (well, has become through
retrofitting) the "who owns the display" tracking, I think fully
standardizing on that makes sense. The only case where there's a
difference is if:
- some compositor dropped master
- but didn't disable it's framebuffers
We actually want that for smooth vt switching, so that the new compositor
could take over in a transition. Having a special case with fbdev where
the compositor has to disable all its fb or fbcon won't take over feels a
bit irky.
