[PATCH] sgiioc4: Disable module unload 

This patch removes a module_exit function that sgiioc4 should not have had.

It seems that the IDE layer doesn't support submodule unloading.  sgiioc4 was
the only driver in drivers/ide/pci that had an exit function.  After an
unload, the devices would stay around and the next attempt to reference would
crash...
