This is incorrect.

The cleanup order should be the reverse of the probing order.

Also request_region() return value is not checked by the driver
(there is a comment that it can fail and is optional):

        /* request failure does not faze us, as vgacon probably has this
         * region already (FIXME) */
        request_region(0x3c0, 32, "vesafb");

so what would happen in such case? It seems that unconditionally
doing the release will result in freeing the I/O region owned by
the other driver (vgacon)..
