Due to viafb_exit() with "__exit" tag, it should not be called by the
__init function via_core_init().
I wonder if you can't instead of this and your previous patch (ab885d8c7e15)
turn the i2c and gpio drivers to proper platform drivers, e.g.
adding to bottom of via/via_i2c.c:
module_platform_driver(&via_i2c_driver)
instead of viafb_i2c_init() and viafb_i2c_exit().

Shouldn't they then automatically be loaded/unloaded?
