Subject: [PATCH 0/5] fbdev: devm_register_framebuffer() and some fixes for
 efifb

Some random optimization and fixes I came up with while looking at
efifb.c.

I can't get the efifb driver to probe on my hardware,
so this is only compile-tested.
If somebody could actually test it, that would be great.
