3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lothar Waßmann <l...@karo-electronics.de>

commit 98c35534420d3147553bd3071a5fc63cd56de5b1 upstream.

The pointer to a platform_device struct must not be dereferenced after
the device has been unregistered.

This bug produces a crash when unloading the ci13xxx kernel module
compiled with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING enabled.
