[PATCH v4] HID: lg4ff: Remove sysfs iface before deallocating memory

["Michal Malý" <madcatxster@gmail.com>]

Hi,

This patch fixes a possible race condition caused by the sysfs
interface being removed after the memory used by the interface
was already kfree'd.
Please note that this patch depends on "hid-lg: Allow for custom
device-specific properties to be stored in private drv data" because
it also fixes a tiny glitch - a leftover #include in the hid-lg.h

I have another lg4ff patch pending that makes use of the new possibility to
store device-specific data which is currently being review by Simon.
The patch as it is right now will depend on this patch.
