Staging: asus_oled: fix NULL-ptr crash on unloading
commit 3589e74595a4332ebf77b5ed006f3c6686071ecd upstream.
Asus_oled triggers the following bug on module unloading:
usbcore: deregistering interface driver asus-oled
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000038

This is due to an incorrect destruction sequence in asus_oled_exit().
Fix the order, fixes the bug. Tested on an Asus G50V laptop only.
