mtd: call the remove notifiers before assuming it is in use
Now that mtd block common layer is prepared for proper hotplug support, enable it here Now all users of the mtd device have a chance to put the mtd device when they are notified to do so, and they have to do so to make hotplug work. [dwmw2: There's more work to be done to fix hotplug in the general case, but this is a reasonable start] Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
