Yeah further patches clean this up more. Or did you see a potential bug
here? I did ditch the fb_release error handling, simply because there's
not really much we can do anyway, it shouldn't ever fail (that's a driver
bug) and it was convoluting the code for no gain. But I might have missed
something in this cargo-cult.
