Subject: [PATCH 3.2 14/70] ser_gigaset: fix deallocation of platform
 device structure

3.2.76-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@...p.cc>

commit 4c5e354a974214dfb44cd23fa0429327693bc3ea upstream.

When shutting down the device, the struct ser_cardstate must not be
kfree()d immediately after the call to platform_device_unregister()
since the embedded struct platform_device is still in use.
Move the kfree() call to the release method instead.
