Hi Thomas,

FYI, this doesn't fix the issue of lightdm not being able to start for me.

Of course, that's expected. It's a different bug.

Best regards Thomas

Retrieving the system framebuffer's parent device in sysfb_init() increments the parent device's reference count. Hence release the reference before leaving the init function.

Adding the sysfb platform device acquires and additional reference for the parent. This keeps the parent device around while the system framebuffer is in use.
