Found it. nouveau_fbcon_destroy() doesn't call drm_framebuffer_remove().
If I add that, the crtc gets properly disabled on unload.

It does call drm_framebuffer_cleanup(). That's why there was no WARN,
drm_mode_config_cleanup() only WARNs if a framebuffer was left on the
mode_config.fb_list.

radeon and amdgpu have the same problem. In fact there are very few
drivers that call drm_framebuffer_remove(): tegra, msm, exynos, omapdrm
and i915 (since Imre Deak's 9d6612516da0).

Should we add a WARN to prevent this? How about WARN_ON(crtc->enabled)
in drm_crtc_cleanup()?

Also, i915 calls drm_framebuffer_unregister_private() before it calls
drm_framebuffer_remove(). This ordering has the unfortunate side effect
that the drm_framebuffer has ID 0 in log messages emitted by
drm_framebuffer_remove():

[   39.680874] [drm:drm_mode_object_unreference] OBJ ID: 0 (3)
[   39.680878] [drm:drm_mode_object_unreference] OBJ ID: 0 (2)
[   39.680884] [drm:drm_mode_object_unreference] OBJ ID: 0 (1)

Best regards,

Lukas
