I think a new drm_devm.c helper would be nice for all this stuff.
Especially since you can't freely mix devm-based setup/cleanup with
normal cleanup I think it'd be good to have it all together in one
place. And perhaps even a code example in the DOC: overview.

You're right, both paths will have called drm_dev_unplug by then.
Silly me. I really liked my idea :-)

Hm, this might upset Greg KH's code taste ... maybe there's a better
way to do this, but best to prototype a patch with this, send it to
him and ask how to :-)

Iirc fbdev/fbcon can result in leaks ... at least we've had patches
where drivers leaked drm_connector and drm_framebuffer objects, and
they've been fixed by calling drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() in the
unload path. Maybe this is cargo-culting, but it goes way back to
pre-atomic, where drivers called drm_helper_force_disable_all().

If you try to move the fbcon to your tinydrm drivers (con2fb is
apparently the cmdline tool you need, never tried it, I only switch
the kernel's console between fbcon and dummycon and back, not what
fbcon drivers itself), then I think you should be able to reproduce.
And maybe you have a better idea how to deal with this all.

Note also that there's been proposals floating around to only close an
drm_framebuffer, not also remove it (like the current RMFB ioctl
does), with that closing userspace would not necessarily lead to a
full cleanup.

Another thing (which doesn't apply to drm_simple_display_pipe drivers)
is if you have the display on, but no planes showing (i.e. all black).
Then all the fbs will be cleaned up, but drm_connector will be
leaking. That's a case where you need drm_atomic_helper_shutdown()
even if fbcon/fbdev isn't even enabled.
