Subject: [PATCH 5.17 022/114] fbdev: efifb: Fix a use-after-free due early fb_info cleanup

From: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 1b5853dfab7fdde450f00f145327342238135c8a ]

Commit d258d00fb9c7 ("fbdev: efifb: Cleanup fb_info in .fb_destroy rather
than .remove") attempted to fix a use-after-free error due driver freeing
the fb_info in the .remove handler instead of doing it in .fb_destroy.

But ironically that change introduced yet another use-after-free since the
fb_info was still used after the free.

This should fix for good by freeing the fb_info at the end of the handler.

Fixes: d258d00fb9c7 ("fbdev: efifb: Cleanup fb_info in .fb_destroy rather than .remove")
