Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drm/ast: Fix connector leak during driver unload

When unloading the ast driver, a warning message is printed by
drm_mode_config_cleanup() because a reference is still held to one of
the drm_connector structs.

Correct this by calling drm_framebuffer_remove() in
ast_fbdev_destroy().
