Hm, the special-casing is a bit annoying. I think it'd be much nicer to
roll out calls to the helper open/releas implementations to all the
drivers which have an fb_open/release already. And then make this work for
everyone. Quick grep says that there's only radeon/amdgpu, nouveau and udl
doing that.
