Subject: staging: greybus: spilib: fix use-after-free after deregistration

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 770b03c2ca4aa44d226cf248f86aa23e546147d0 upstream.

Remove erroneous spi_master_put() after controller deregistration which
would access the already freed spi controller.

Note that spi_unregister_master() drops our only controller reference.
