If simplefb was setup by our bootloader and enabled in the DT, we will have
a first framebuffer loaded in our system.
However, as soon as our DRM driver will load, it will reset the controller,
initialise it and, if the framebuffer emulation is enabled, register a
second framebuffer device.
This is obviously pretty bad, since the first framebuffer will be some kind
of a black hole, with memory still reserved that we can write to safely,
but not displayed anywhere.
Make sure we remove that framebuffer when we probe so we don't end up in
that situation.

One of the A10 display pipeline possible output is an RGB interface to
drive LCD panels directly. This is done through the first channel of the
TCON that will output our video signals directly.

The Allwinner A10 and subsequent SoCs share the same display pipeline, with
variations in the number of controllers (1 or 2), or the presence or not of
some output (HDMI, TV, VGA) or not.
Add a driver with a limited set of features for now, and we will hopefully
support all of them eventually
