Merging the un-registering of both the subdevices and the
main comedi device into one function and the module which
actually associated with it. The kernel oops observed before
was because the main device was un-registered first and
then the subdevices which were then no longer valid.
This has been also tested with 'comedi_config -r' for
both autoconfigured and legacy devices.

This doesn't apply to linux-next any more. (For example,
cleanup_device() function was renamed amongst other stuff.) I've also
fixed a load of stuff related to this bug since this patch was
applicable, so possibly the bug has been squashed already.
Bernd, can you reproduce the problem on the latest tagged linux-next branch?
Also, the removal of all that code from cleanup_device() (since renamed
to comedi_device_detach_cleanup()) would stop the COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl
with NULL argument (e.g. via the 'comedi_config -r' command to detach a
device) cleaning up after the detachment, especially for the
preallocated "legacy" comedi devices that hang around after the
detachment, ready to be reattached via another instance of the ioctl call.
