This patch prevents the system from crashing when unloading the ISM module. How to reproduce: Attach an ISM device and execute 'rmmod ism'. Error-Log: - Trying to free already-free IRQ 0 - WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 966 at kernel/irq/manage.c:1890 free_irq+0x140/0x540 After calling ism_dev_exit() for each ISM device in the exit routine, pci_unregister_driver() will execute ism_remove() for each ISM device. Because ism_remove() also calls ism_dev_exit(), free_irq(pci_irq_vector(pdev, 0), ism) is called twice for each ISM device. This results in a crash with the error 'Trying to free already-free IRQ'. In the exit routine, it is enough to call pci_unregister_driver() because it ensures that ism_dev_exit() is called once per ISM device.
