Subject: [PATCH 4.20 53/65] video: fbdev: pxafb: Fix "WARNING: invalid free of devm_ allocated data"

4.20-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@...wei.com>

commit 2607391882fca37463187e7f2a9c76dec286947e upstream.

'info->modes' got allocated with devm_kcalloc in of_get_pxafb_display.

This gives this error message:
  ./drivers/video/fbdev/pxafb.c:2238:2-7: WARNING: invalid free of devm_ allocated data
