Move video device unregistration to the beginning of the remove function
to ensure all video operations are stopped before cleaning up the worker
thread and disabling PM runtime. This prevents hardware register access
after the device has been powered down.

In polling mode, the hrtimer periodically triggers
wave5_vpu_timer_callback() which queues work to the kthread worker.
The worker executes wave5_vpu_irq_work_fn() which reads hardware
registers via wave5_vdi_read_register().

The original cleanup order disabled PM runtime and powered down hardware
before unregistering video devices. When autosuspend triggers and powers
off the hardware, the video devices are still registered and the worker
thread can still be triggered by the hrtimer, causing it to attempt
reading registers from powered-off hardware. This results in a bus error
(synchronous external abort) and kernel panic.

This causes random kernel panics during encoding operations:
