Is this documented somewhere?

Couple of comments:
 - i8042_timer has not been started yet so there is no need to delete
it in either of the chinks.
- opening brace placement does not follow Linux coding style.

I think I have some changes to i8042 in my tree, I will add
i8042_platform_exit calls to the init routine. Thanks for noticing it!
