Subject: [38/82] USB: MUSB: fix kernel WARNING/oops when unloading module in OTG mode

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@...mvista.com>

commit f405387435a85a440d1ce16f3ca36e042281643a upstream.

Since commit 461972d8a4c94bc44f11a13046041c78a7cf18dd (musb_core: don't call
musb_platform_exit() twice), unloading the driver module results in a WARNING
"kobject: '(null)' (c73de788): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being
called." (or even kernel oops) on e.g. DaVincis, though only in the OTG mode.
There exists dubious and unbalanced put_device() call in musb_free() which
takes place only in the OTG mode.  As this commit caused musb_platform_exit()
to be called (and so unregister the NOP transceiver) before this put_device()
call, this function references already freed memory.

On the other hand, all the glue layers miss the otg_put_transceiver() call,
complementary to the otg_get_transceiver() call that they do.  So, I think
the solution is to get rid of the strange put_device() call, and instead
call otg_put_transceiver() in the glue layers...
