Subject: Re: [patchset 2/3 -2.6.18-rc1]  pc8736x_gpio:  fix re-modprobe errors - undo region reservation

2 - pc-init-fix-undo-region-rollup

this patch fixes module-init-func by repairing usage of 
platform_device_del/put in module-exit-func.
IOW, it imitates Ingo's 'mishaps' patch, which fixed the 
module-init-func's undo handling.
Also fixes lack of release_region to undo the earlier registration.

Also starts to 'use a cdev' which was originally intended (its present 
in scx200_gpio).
Code compiles and runs, exhibits a lesser error than previously. 
(re-register-chrdev fails)

Since I had to add "include <linux/cdev.h>", I went ahead and made 2
tweaks that fell into diff-context-window:
- remove include <linux/config.h>      everyone's doing it
- copyright updates - current date is 'wrong'
