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

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

From: Ben Hutchings <[email protected]>

commit 9105b8b200410383d0854bbe237ee385d7d33ba6 upstream.

Currently the module init function registers a platform_device and
only then allocates its IRQ and I/O region.  This allows allocation to
race with the device's suspend() function.  Instead, allocate
resources in the platform driver's probe() function and free them in
the remove() function.

The module exit function removes the platform device before the
character device that provides access to it.  Change it to reverse the
order of initialisation.
