virtio_pci: defer kfree until release callback
A struct device which has just been unregistered can live on past the point at which a driver decides to drop it's initial reference to the kobject gained on allocation. This implies that when releasing a virtio device, we can't free a struct virtio_device until the underlying struct device has been released, which might not happen immediately on device_unregister(). Unfortunately, this is exactly what virtio pci does: it has an empty release callback, and frees memory immediately after unregistering the device. This causes an easy to reproduce crash if CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE it enabled. To fix, free the memory only once we know the device is gone in the release callback.
