Driver core: Don't call put methods while holding a spinlock

The klist utility routines currently call _put methods while holding a
spinlock.  This is of course illegal; a put routine could try to
unregister a device and hence need to sleep.

No problems have arisen until now because in many cases klist removals
were done synchronously, so the _put methods were never actually used.
In other cases we may simply have been lucky.

This patch (as784) reworks the klist routines so that _put methods are
called only _after_ the klist's spinlock has been released.
