[133/272] ext4: unregister features interface on module unload

[Greg KH]

2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8f021222c1e2756ea4c9dde93b23e1d2a0a4ec37 upstream.

Ext4 features interface was not properly unregistered which led to
problems while unloading/reloading ext4 module. This commit fixes that by
adding proper kobject unregistration code into ext4_exit_fs() as well as
fail-path of ext4_init_fs()
