[PATCH 1/2] extcon: Unregister compat class at module unload to fix oops

From: Peter Huewe
Date: Fri Sep 21 2012 - 21:36:44 EST


If you compile extcon with CONFIG_ANDROID and then load and unload the
module you get a simple oops as the driver does not unregister its
compat class and thus cannot register it again.
