If we execute the below steps without this patch:
modprobe mpc85xx_edac [The first insmod, everything is well.]
modprobe -r mpc85xx_edac
modprobe mpc85xx_edac [insmod again, error happens.]
We would get the error messages as below:
BUG: recent printk recursion!

Address this by cleaning up properly when removing the platform driver.
Tested on a T4240QDS board.
