[PATCH 09/12] crypto: atmel - check client data in remove callbacks

Check the i2c client private data pointer in the remove callbacks of
the Atmel ECC and SHA204A drivers before accessing driver state.
Move sysfs group removal ahead of the NULL check so cleanup can still
proceed even if client data is unavailable. Also downgrade the
busy-device warning in the ECC remove path from dev_emerg() to
dev_warn().
