PATCH 1/1 spi subsystem: destroy the spi_bitbang workqueue only after the spi master is unregistered
From: Chris Lesiak <[email protected]>
This patch fixes a bug in the cleanup of an spi_bitbang bus. The workqueue associated with the bus was destroyed before the call to spi_unregister_master. That meant that spi devices on that bus would be unable to do IO in their remove method. The shutdown flag should have been able to prevent a segfault, but was never getting set. By waiting to destroy the workqueue until after the master is unregistered, devices are able to do IO in their remove methods. An added benefit is that neither the shutdown flag nor a wait for the queue of messages to empty is needed.

This patch is against 2.6.19.2, but should apply cleanly to 2.6.20

... but right here there should be a WARN_ON(!list_empty(...)) to flag the corresponding bogosity: that somehow a request never completed.
