When a "pxa2xx-i2c" device was unbound (e.g. via sysfs) the remove
callback was not called because it was discarded when linking the
kernel. ?Because of that the resources allocated in probe were not
freed and so a clean unbind/rebind was impossible.

Fix that by moving the remove callback to .devexit.text.

I see this patch is still not pushed to neither linus nor linux-next.
Should I put it into rmk's patch system? Or will it find it's way to main kernel
via other paths?

rmk's patch system isn't the right place.  Ben needs to take it.  Ben?

Best regards
