I wouldn't embed the single framebuffer here, but instead have a pointer
and just refcount it. This here is a pattern that predates framebuffer
refcounting, and it leads to plenty of surprises.

Maybe we should update the documentation of
drm_framebuffer_unregister_private() to mention that it is deprecated? The
overview doc in drm_framebuffer.c already explains that, but I guess
that's not obvious enough.

Can you pls do that patch? And pls make sure it all looks pretty when
building the docs with

$ make htmldocs

Thanks, Daniel
