[PATCH v6 2/5] firmware: sysfb: Add sysfb_disable() helper function

From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Tue Jun 07 2022 - 17:02:39 EST


This can be used by subsystems to unregister a platform device registered
by sysfb and also to disable future platform device registration in sysfb.

Changes in v6:
- Drop sysfb_try_unregister() helper since is no longer needed.

Changes in v4:
- Make sysfb_disable() to also attempt to unregister a device.

Changes in v2:
- Add kernel-doc comments and include in other_interfaces.rst (Daniel Vetter).
