Subject: [patch 1/2] Add platform_device_del()

Driver core: add platform_device_del function

Having platform_device_del90 allows more straightforward error
handling code in drivers registering platform devices.

Other than that, and let alone the fact that I prefer code cleanups as
separate patches, and the fact that I don't think moving
platform_device_register() around adds much value, this patch looks
good to me.

Will fix, thank you for noticing.

It was not moved ;) platform_device_register() is and was in front of
platform_device_unregister. But because the new platform_device_del()
reused most of the platform_device_unregister() body patch plays a trick
on you making you believe that some code was moved around.
