+Subject: [PATCH 337/381] drm/vc4: Kick out the simplefb framebuffer before we
+ set up KMS.
+
+If we don't, then simplefb stays loaded on /dev/fb0 even though
+scanout isn't happening from simplefb's memory area any more, and you
+end up with no console.

+(cherry picked from commit b3a15f6d55fb584dd4d8baac5d1b6a398720620c)
