[PATCH v4 3/4] staging: unisys: use local variable instead of global

[Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com>]

dev_t was passed as an argument to visorchipset_file_init() which was
storing that value in a global variable so that it can be used while
cleanup. now we are no longer using the global variable in the cleanup
so we donot need to keep the global variable anymore.
