Subject: [PATCH] i2c: do not use device name after device_unregister

dev_dbg outputs dev_name, which is released with device_unregister. This bug
resulted in output like this:

[ 7860.470713] i2c Xy2�0: adapter [SMBus I801 adapter at 1880] unregistered

The right output would be:
[   60.639233] i2c i2c-0: adapter [SMBus I801 adapter at 1880] unregistered
