[PATCH] iio: light: tsl2583: Fix module unloading

[Shreeya Patel]

tsl2583 uses devm_iio_device_register() function and
calling iio_device_unregister() in remove breaks the
module unloading.
Fix this by removing call to iio_device_unregister()
from tsl2583_remove().

Stable and fixes tags are missing

Driver removal sequence should be opposite to the registration order.
Could be better not to use the devm in this case.

Stable tags often added by maintainer when applying the patch
rather than at submission: can take into account how they want to
manage stable backports - some maintainers prefer to run a bunch
of tests before asking for patches to be added to stable. I don't
do that, but I don't always tag fixes for stable if I think there
is some risk associated.

Obviously this one is fine for stable material though and I would
have tagged v2 whilst applying ;)

Agreed. Simplest fix is indeed to do what v2 does.

Nicer tidy up after that is perhaps to switch to
devm_pm_runtime_enable()
which tidies up nicely on that and register a
separate callback with devm_add_action_or_reset() to deal with
the power down.  However, I'm struggling to follow how the device
is powered up in the first place (particularly if we disable runtime
pm to make the flow simpler). 

I think the driver may only "work" today by merit of letting it 
autosuspend then resuming.
