I concur, the issue was only revealed because a (not so interesting
error path was triggered). Reproduced this on current master
(v4.20-rc7-274-g23203e3f34c9), the trace leading up to the warning is
the same:

The warning suggests that drm_framebuffer_init was called at some point without
a matching call to drm_framebuffer_cleanup. Adding dump_stack() reveals:

    [   97.694880] bochs-drm 0000:00:02.0: [drm:drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup] *ERROR* fbdev: Failed to set configuration (ret=-38)

More precisely, this is the call chain (obtained via GDB):

    drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup
    -> drm_fb_helper_initial_config
    -> __drm_fb_helper_initial_config_and_unlock
    -> drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe
    -> bochsfb_create
    -> drm_gem_fbdev_fb_create
    -> drm_gem_fb_alloc
    -> drm_framebuffer_init

Let's have a look at the source of the error message, keep in mind that
drm_fb_helper_fini is called on the error path:

    int drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup(struct drm_device *dev, ...) {
        /* ... */
        ret = drm_fb_helper_initial_config(fb_helper, preferred_bpp);
        if (ret < 0) {
            DRM_DEV_ERROR(dev->dev, "fbdev: Failed to set configuration (ret=%d)\n", ret);
            goto err_drm_fb_helper_fini;
        }

        return 0;

    err_drm_fb_helper_fini:
        drm_fb_helper_fini(fb_helper);

        return ret;
    }

The CONFIG_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN error above suggests that this code path is reached
*after* calling bochsfb_create:

    drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup
    -> drm_fb_helper_initial_config
    -> __drm_fb_helper_initial_config_and_unlock
    -> register_framebuffer
    -> do_register_framebuffer
    -> fb_check_foreignness
    (prints error and propagates error code back to drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup).

What does "drm_fb_helper_fini" do? Among other things it basically kfree's
memory associated with "fb_helper->fbdev" which was created using
"drm_fb_helper_alloc_fbi" in the "fb_probe" callback. This is sufficient for
"drm_fb_helper_generic_probe" (introduced by Noralf), but not for
"bochsfb_create" which additionally calls "drm_gem_fbdev_fb_create":

    info = drm_fb_helper_alloc_fbi(helper);
    if (IS_ERR(info)) {
        DRM_ERROR("Failed to allocate fbi: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(info));
        return PTR_ERR(info);
    }

    info->par = &bochs->fb.helper;

    fb = drm_gem_fbdev_fb_create(bochs->dev, sizes, 0, gobj, NULL);
    if (IS_ERR(fb)) {
        DRM_ERROR("Failed to create framebuffer: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(fb));
        return PTR_ERR(fb);
    }

    /* setup helper */
    bochs->fb.helper.fb = fb;

Note that "fb" is unhandled by "drm_fb_helper_fini", so it leaks.

What is the usual behavior? drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup succeeds and on unload
drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown is called which properly releases "fb":

    void drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown(struct drm_device *dev)
    {
        struct drm_fb_helper *fb_helper = dev->fb_helper;
        struct fb_ops *fbops = NULL;

        if (!fb_helper)
            return;

        /* Unregister if it hasn't been done already */
        if (fb_helper->fbdev && fb_helper->fbdev->dev)
            drm_fb_helper_unregister_fbi(fb_helper);

        if (fb_helper->fbdev && fb_helper->fbdev->fbdefio) {
            fb_deferred_io_cleanup(fb_helper->fbdev);
            kfree(fb_helper->fbdev->fbdefio);
            fbops = fb_helper->fbdev->fbops;
        }

        drm_fb_helper_fini(fb_helper);
        kfree(fbops);

        if (fb_helper->fb)
            drm_framebuffer_remove(fb_helper->fb);  // yay!
    }

Due to calling "drm_fb_helper_fini" however, "dev->fb_helper" will be NULL and
thus this function does nothing on the error path.

So in summary, "drm_fb_helper_fbdev_setup" calls the driver callback
drm_fb_helper_funcs::fb_probe, detects an error but does not properly release
all resources from the callback even after calling "drm_fb_helper_fini". On
unload, "drm_fb_helper_fbdev_teardown" has no effect because the earlier call to
"drm_fb_helper_fini" and skips the required "drm_framebuffer_remove" call.

I'll send a proposed patch in a reply.
