rpmsg: glink: fix rpmsg device leak

commit a53e356df548f6b0e82529ef3cc6070f42622189 upstream.

While testing rpmsg-char interface it was noticed that duplicate sysfs
entries are getting created and below warning is noticed.

Reason for this is that we are leaking rpmsg device pointer, setting it
null without actually unregistering device.
Any further attempts to unregister fail because rpdev is NULL,
resulting in a leak.

Fix this by unregistering rpmsg device before removing its reference
from rpmsg channel.
