The efifb and simplefb drivers just render to a pre-allocated frame buffer and rely on the display hardware being initialized before the kernel boots. But if another driver already probed correctly and registered a fbdev, the generic drivers shouldn't be probed since an actual driver for the display hardware is already present. This is more likely to occur after commit d391c582 ("drivers/firmware: move x86 Generic System Framebuffers support") since the "efi-framebuffer" and "simple-framebuffer" platform devices are registered at a later time.
