[PATCH] dma: shdma: don't register the global die notifier multipletimes

[Guennadi Liakhovetski]

A recent patch has added a die notifier to the shdma driver, however, 
it registers a static die-notifier object in the probe routine, i.e., 
for each device instance. This is wrong and leads to a system lockup. 
This patch moves the die notifier registration to module init and 
exit routines respectively.

This fixes the lock up on sh7372. Patch against current sh-2.6/master.
