Cristian Ciocaltea 19920ab98e drm/display: hdmi-cec-helper: Fix adapter unregistration
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.
