drm/bridge: tpd12s015: Drop buggy __exit annotation for remove function
[ Upstream commit ce3e112e7ae854249d8755906acc5f27e1542114 ]
With tpd12s015_remove() marked with __exit this function is discarded
when the driver is compiled as a built-in. The result is that when the
driver unbinds there is no cleanup done which results in resource
leakage or worse.
