On unbind of the BCM2835 SPI driver, the SPI controller is disabled first and the DMA channels are terminated and torn down afterwards. This seems backwards: In the theoretical case that DMA is active, it might try to fill the SPI FIFOs even after the controller has been disabled. Reverse the order, thereby mirroring what's done on ->probe().
