[PATCH] media: stm32: csi: unregister async notifier on cleanup

stm32_csi_parse_dt() registers the async notifier before probe finishes.
If a later operation fails, the error path only cleans up the notifier's
connections.  It does not unregister the notifier, leaving its entry on
the global notifier list after the devm-allocated csidev is freed.

The remove path has the same problem.  A later async operation can then
walk the stale notifier entry and access freed memory.

Unregister the notifier before cleaning up its resources on both paths.
