drm/i915: Don't clear drvdata in ->release
For two reasons: - The driver core clears this already for us after we're unloaded in __device_release_driver(). - It's way too late, the drm_device ->release callback might massively outlive the underlying physical device, since a drm_device can be kept alive by open drm_file or well really anything else userspace is still hanging onto. So if we clear this ourselves, we should clear it in the pci ->remove callback, not in the drm_device ->release callback. Looking at git history this was fixed in the driver core with commit 0998d0631001288a5974afc0b2a5f568bcdecb4d Author: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Date: Wed May 23 00:09:34 2012 +0200 device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound v2: Cite the core fix in the commit message (Chris). v3: Fix commit message and unused variable warning (Jani).
