After the switch to use v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev() and v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup(), unloading the ti_cal module would casue a kernel oops.
This was root cause to the fact that v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup() tries to kfree the asd pointer passed into v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev().
In our case the asd reference was from a statically allocated struct. So in effect v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup() was trying to free a pointer that was not kalloc.
So here we switch to using a kzalloc struct instead of a static one. To acheive this we re-order some of the calls to prevent asd allocation from leaking.
