+
+ drm: Don't grab an fb reference for the idr
+
+we've switched to weak references, broke that assumption but forgot to
+fix it up.
+
+Since we still force-disable planes it's only possible to hit this
+when racing multiple rmfb with fbdev restoring or similar evil things.
+As long as userspace is nice it's impossible to hit the BUG_ON.
+
+But the BUG_ON would most likely be hit from fbdev code, which usually
+invovles the console_lock besides all modeset locks. So very likely
+we'd never get the bug reports if this was hit in the wild, hence
+better be safe than sorry and backport.
+
+Spotted by Matt Roper while reviewing other patches.
