From: Samuel Holland <samuel@sholland.org>

If V4L2 device fails to register, then SRAM still be claimed and as a
result driver will not be able to probe again.

 cedrus 1c0e000.video-codec: Failed to claim SRAM
 cedrus 1c0e000.video-codec: Failed to probe hardware
 cedrus 1c0e000.video-codec: probe with driver cedrus failed with error -16

cedrus_hw_remove undoes everything that was previously done by
cedrus_hw_probe, such as disabling runtime power management and
releasing the claimed SRAM and reserved memory region.

Good catch, thanks for the patch!

Note that I (still) plan to rework the architecture of this driver in the
future but such fixes are definitely welcome in the meantime.

All the best,

Paul
