The variable vga->vfd is an alias for vfd. Therefore, releasing vfd and
then unregister vga->vfd will lead to a use after free bug. In fact, the
free operation and the unregister operation are reversed.

This isn't right, you need to update the goto labels as well.

With this change unreg_video_dev releases the vdev, while rel_vdev
unregisters it. Very confusing.

I'd also rename unreg_video_dev to unreg_vdev to be consistent with
rel_vdev.

Regards,

	Hans
