There's two minor behaviour changes in here:
- in error paths we now consistently call fb_ops->fb_release
- fb_release really can't fail (fbmem.c ignores it too) and there's no
  reasonable cleanup we can do anyway.

The old code assigns con2fb_map[unit] before is calls
newinfo->fbops->fb_release).
I wonder if there can be any callback to fbcon where the value
of con2fb_map[unit] matters?

These all look like candidates to stuff into fbcon_release()
That would drop the nice symmetry but make it more consistent.

I think we miss freeing ops->cursor_data in fbcon_exit(),
but I did not follow all the code.

With my ramblings considered the patch is

We agree as I can see this was done in a later patch.

It's all protected by console_lock, so other threads cannot see the
inconsistent state.

Essentially everything in fbcon.c is protected by console_lock().

Do you want me to hammer this in somewhere (maybe in the commit message),
or good enough for your ack?
