[PATCH 15/31] uio: Don't clear driver data

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently uio sets it's driver data to NULL just as it is unregistering
attributes.  sysfs maks the guaranatee that it will not call attributes
after device_destroy is called so this is unncessary and leads to lots
of unnecessary code in uio.c
