Works for me only with CONFIG_FBCON=n, otherwise the fbcon framebuffer
keeps qxl busy. So is most cases (typical distro kernel build with
FBCON=y) you simply can't rmmod qxl.
I agree that "rmmod qxl" should be fixed, but IMHO this is independent
from this bugfix, and I'd like to get it out of the door ASAP. Can I
get your reviewed-by?
cheers,
Gerd
