Subject: [PATCH 3.18 08/45] serial: ifx6x60: fix use-after-free on module unload

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

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

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 1e948479b3d63e3ac0ecca13cbf4921c7d17c168 upstream.

Make sure to deregister the SPI driver before releasing the tty driver
to avoid use-after-free in the SPI remove callback where the tty
devices are deregistered.

Fixes: 72d4724ea54c ("serial: ifx6x60: Add modem power off function in the platform reboot process")
