Patch looks good:

Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>

But I've found a bunch of ordering issues here:
- we should probably get the runtime pm reference _before_ we register the
  framebuffer. There's a race right now about there.
- the sysfs_remove_groups and framebuffer_release should also be moved
  into the destroy callback. This is more a leak type of situation.

Cheers, Daniel
