Subject: [PATCH 4.9 52/88] iio: magnetometer: ak8974: remove incorrect __exit markups

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@...il.com>

commit 3ff861f59f6c1f5bf2bc03d2cd36ac3f992cbc06 upstream.

Even if bus is not hot-pluggable, devices can be unbound from the
driver via sysfs, so we should not be using __exit annotations on
remove() methods. The only exception is drivers registered with
platform_driver_probe() which specifically disables sysfs bind/unbind
attributes.
