HID: picoLCD: prevent NULL pointer dereferences
Driver code expects to get access to struct picolcd_data from hiddev and is not prepared to find a NULL pointer there. Most prominent candidate to trip on it is picolcd_fb_deferred_io(). Delay removing struct picolcd_data from hiddev until all sub-devices have been unregistered. Signed-off-by: Bruno Prémont <bonbons@linux-vserver.org> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
