Yes, all my testing for this was done with a rpi4 so I should be able to reproduce
that case. I'm confused though because I tested efifb -> vc4, simplefb -> vc4 and
simpledrm -> vc4.

Right! I looked at the base for drm-tip but forgot that drm-misc was still on 5.18.
I'll look at this tomorrow but in the meantime, could you please look if the following
commits on top of drm-misc-next help ?
d258d00fb9c7 fbdev: efifb: Cleanup fb_info in .fb_destroy rather than .remove
1b5853dfab7f fbdev: efifb: Fix a use-after-free due early fb_info cleanup
