sd->devnode is released after calling
v4l2_subdev_release. Therefore it should be set
to NULL so that the subdev won't hold a pointer
to a released object. This fixes a reference
after free bug in function
v4l2_device_unregister_subdev

changes since v2:
- since this is a regresion fix, I added Fixes and Cc to stable tags,
- change the commit title and log to be more clear.
changes since v3:
move the sd->devnode = NULL; line below the call to the release cb
so that it can still use it.
