commit bf6ba3aeb2962e5ee4a78e7535af579ecba630bb upstream.
Russell King reported:
"When removing and reloading the etnaviv module, the following splat occurs:
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/platform/etnaviv' CPU: 0 PID: 1471 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 4.17.0+ #1608 Hardware name: Marvell Dove (Cubox) Backtrace: [<c00157d4>] (dump_backtrace) from [<c0015b8c>] (show_stack+0x18/0x1c) r6:ef033e38 r5:ee07b340 r4:edb9d000 r3:00000000 [<c0015b74>] (show_stack) from [<c0620784>] (dump_stack+0x20/0x28) [<c0620764>] (dump_stack) from [<c01bcd24>] (sysfs_warn_dup+0x5c/0x70) [<c01bccc8>] (sysfs_warn_dup) from [<c01bce14>] (sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x90/0x98) ..."
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.
