Unregister the rpmsg_ctrl device instead of just freeing the

This will properly unregister the device and call
virtio_rpmsg_release_device() that frees the structure.

The author of this patch should have been Arnaud, something I have fixed before
applying this set.

Thanks,

I get it. I'm sorry i thought Signed-off-by and a description in cover letter are enough to express. Do i need to do anything else?

Thanks,
