hwmon: Remove devm_hwmon_device_unregister() API function

Browse Source 
devm_hwmon_device_unregister() has no in-tree user, and its implementation
is wrong since it does not pass the to-be-removed hardware monitoring
device as parameter. I do not envision a valid use for it; drivers needing
it should not have called devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info() in the
first place. Remove it.

remove function if the hardware monitoring device was registered with
hwmon_device_register_with_info.
devm_hwmon_device_unregister does not normally have to be called. It is only
needed for error handling, and only needed if the driver probe fails after
the call to devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info and if the automatic (device
managed) removal would be too late.
All supported hwmon device registration functions only accept valid device
names. Device names including invalid characters (whitespace, '*', or '-')
will be rejected. The 'name' parameter is mandatory.
