Alexander Shishkin 0a8f72fafb stm class: Lose the protocol driver when dropping its reference 
Commit c7fd62bc69 ("stm class: Introduce framing protocol drivers")
forgot to tear down the link between an stm device and its protocol
driver when policy is removed. This leads to an invalid pointer reference
if one tries to write to an stm device after the policy has been removed
and the protocol driver module unloaded, leading to the below splat:

> BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc0737068

> #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

Fix this by tearing down the link from an stm device to its protocol
driver when the policy involving that driver is removed.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
