When registering a generic framebuffer, automatically acquire ownership
of the framebuffer's I/O range. The device will now be handled by the

What's the meaning of 'm' here ? Misc, memory ? I would just call it 'fb_'.
'managed' as in drmm_ But using fb_ is also good. I actually wasn't sure about this naming.
