Attempting to reload a kernel module of an HDMI driver making use of the
new CEC helpers revealed a resource deallocation issue, i.e. the entries
in /dev/cec* keep growing.
Moreover, after a couple of tries the kernel crashes and the whole
system freezes:
[ 47.515950] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0020072007200778

Do a proper cleanup by calling cec_unregister_adapter() instead of
cec_delete_adapter() in the managed release action handler.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
