Hi,

When I try to unbind the EFI framebuffer via:

        echo -n efi-framebuffer.0 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/efi-framebuffer/unbind
Can I ask why?

nouveau kicks the efifb off the hw, and unregisters it, but when you
unbind it it tries to unregister again.

It might be possible to block this, but not sure of the point, efifb
is a built-in, you can't unload the module to save memory.
