ses: Fix racy cleanup of /sys in remove_dev()
Currently we free the resources backing the enclosure device before we
call device_unregister(). This is racy: during rmmod of low-level SCSI
drivers that hook into enclosure, we end up with a small window of time
during which writing to /sys can OOPS. Example trace with mpt3sas:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN
Modules linked in: mpt3sas(-) <...>
RIP: [<ffffffffa0388a98>] ses_get_page2_descriptor.isra.6+0x38/0x220 [ses]
Call Trace:
[<ffffffffa0389d14>] ses_set_fault+0xf4/0x400 [ses]
[<ffffffffa0361069>] set_component_fault+0xa9/0xf0 [enclosure]
[<ffffffff8205bffc>] dev_attr_store+0x3c/0x70

[<ffffffff81526731>] SyS_write+0x111/0x230
[<ffffffff828b401b>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x13/0x94
Fortunately the solution is extremely simple: call device_unregister()
before we free the resources, and the race no longer exists. The driver
core holds a reference over ->remove_dev(), so AFAICT this is safe.
