[PATCH] spi: bcm2835: fix reference leak to master in bcm2835_spi_remove()

From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei at trendmicro.com.cn>

Once a spi_master_get() call succeeds, we need an additional
spi_master_put() call to free the memory, otherwise we will
leak a reference to master. Fix by removing the unnecessary
spi_master_get() call.
