Zheyu Ma 2c0c19b681 fbdev: fbmem: Fix double free of 'fb_info->pixmap.addr'
savagefb and some other drivers call kfree to free 'info->pixmap.addr'
even after calling unregister_framebuffer, which may cause double free.

Fix this by setting 'fb_info->pixmap.addr' to NULL after kfree in
unregister_framebuffer.

The following log reveals it:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
