char: make chr_fe_deinit() optionaly delete backend
This simplifies removing a backend for a frontend user (no need to retrieve the associated driver and separate delete call etc). NB: many frontends have questionable handling of ending a chardev. They should probably delete the backend to prevent broken reusage. Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>
