    PNP: respect PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE when detaching
    
    I have a device (Nuvoton 6779D Super-IO IR RC with nuvoton-cir driver)
    which works after initial boot but not any longer if I unload and
    re-load the driver module.
    
    Digging into the issue I found that unloading the driver calls
    pnp_disable_dev although the driver has flag PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE
    set. IMHO this is not right.
    
    Let's have a look at the call chain when probing a device:
    pnp_device_probe
    1. attaches the device
    2. if it's not active and PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE is not set
       it gets activated
    3. probes driver
    
    I think pnp_device_remove should do it in reverse order and also
    respect PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE. Therefore:
    1. call drivers remove callback
    2. if device is active and PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE is not set
       disable it
    3. detach device
    
    The change works for me and sounds logical to me.
    However I don't know the pnp driver in detail so I might be wrong.
