Hi Axel,

Good catch. Note that nct6775 has the same problem, if you want to tackle
the problem there as well.

I think something like

exit_device_put:
	platform_device_put(pdev[i]);
exit_device_unregister:
	while (--i >= 0)
		platform_device_unregister(pdev[i]);

would be better though since it saves all the individual calls to
platform_device_put(). Also, the if statement in the cleanup loop
is no longer necessary.

Thanks,
Guenter
