[brcm-2.4] fix wlcompat so that the wl module can be unloaded

Browse Source 
This patch was created on 8.09.2 but it also applies to Backfire
I found that I couldn't unload the broadcom wl driver, wlcompat didn't correctly release/decrement  the device pointer,
This patch cleans that up
 
I wanted to be able to remove/install the wl driver so that I could get out of monitor mode without rebooting
