2.6.31-rc9 breaks gianfar

2.6.31-rc9 breaks gianfar

[Michael Guntsche]

Good morning,

Commit 
38bddf04bcfe661fbdab94888c3b72c32f6873b3 gianfar: gfar_remove needs to call unregister_netdev()

breaks the build of the gianfar driver because "dev" is undefined in
this function. To quickly test rc9 I changed this to priv->ndev but I do
not know if this is the correct one.

Kind regards,
Michael

Toru-chan, did you even compile test this again current kernels?

I'll commit the following fix and push it to Linus, thanks.
