[PATCH] net: ethernet: fix kernel OOPS when remove davinci_mdio module

From: Bin Liu
Date: Thu Aug 30 2012 - 12:51:05 EST


davinci mdio device is not unregistered from mdiobus when removing
the module, which causes BUG_ON() when free the device from mdiobus.

Calling mdiobus_unregister() before mdiobus_free() fixes the issue.
