Unregister the NAND device from the NAND subsystem when removing a denali
NAND controller, otherwise the MTD attached to the NAND device is still
exposed by the MTD layer, and accesses to this device will likely crash
the system.

Does this follow these rules, from
Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt?

 - It must be obviously correct and tested.

 - It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a
   problem..." type thing).

As you wish, I'll remove those Cc and Fixes tags, or just drop the
patch if you think it's useless...

The fixes tag is a separate thing from CCing stable.  It's useful on by
itself.  I always put the person who wrote the original patch in the To:
header so they can review and comment if I have made a mistake.

Noted. I added back the Fixes tag and added Dinh Nguyen (the commit
author) in the loop.

Thanks,

Boris
