Commit 246774d17fc0 ("drm/etnaviv: remove the need for a gpu-subsystem DT node") introduced DRM registration via platform_device_register_simple(), but missed to call platform_device_unregister() inside etnaviv_exit(). Fix the problem by calling platform_device_unregister() inside etnaviv_exit(). While at it, also rearrange the function calls in the exit path to make them happen in the opposite order of registration. Tested on a imx6-sabresd board.
