Sean Young a607f51e5a media: Revert "[media] lirc_dev: remove superfluous get/put_device() calls"
This reverts commit 5be2b76a9c.

Only when the lirc device is freed, should we drop our reference to
rc_dev, else we the rc_dev is freed to early. If userspace has
a file descriptor open during unplug, it goes bang.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
