Hi Maxime,

Once the call to drm_fb_helper_remove_conflicting_framebuffers() has
been made, simplefb has been unregistered and the KMS driver is entirely
in charge of the display.

Thus, we can notify the firmware it can free whatever resource it was
using to maintain simplefb functional.

...and rpi_firmware_put() here. IIUC after this the fw handle isn't needed
anymore.

Other than that, the series looks fine to me.
