cpufreq: davinci: Fix clk use after free
[ Upstream commit 5d8f384a9b4fc50f6a18405f1c08e5a87a77b5b3 ]
The remove function first frees the clks and only then calls
cpufreq_unregister_driver(). If one of the cpufreq callbacks is called
just before cpufreq_unregister_driver() is run, the freed clks might be
used.
