Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] spi: fix use-after-free at controller deregistration

The controller is typically freed as part of device_unregister() so
store the bus id before deregistration to avoid use-after-free when the
id is later released.

Fixes: 9b61e302210e ("spi: Pick spi bus number from Linux idr or spi alias")
