Subject: [char-misc-next 1/9] mei: bus: cancel and disable callback after release call

From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@...el.com>

A driver on the mei bus may rely on the availability
of the receive callback during driver remove() call, e.g. mei_wdt.
Move callbacks dismantling after the remove() call to unblock that scenario.
