Ah yes that's the entire point of this change. The release_all in the
fbcon exit path was only needed when fbcon was a separate module
indepedent from core fb.ko. Which means it was possible to unload fbcon
while having fbdev drivers registered.
But since we've merged them that has become impossible, so by the time the
fb.ko module can be unloaded, there's guaranteed to be no fbdev drivers
left. And hence removing them is pointless.
Ack with that explainer added to the commit message?
