[vlc-devel] [PATCH] decoder_helpers: fix clean order

[Thomas Guillem]

The module need to be unloaded before the dec struct is cleaned.

This fixes an undefined behavior with threaded decoders like avcodec when they
called decoder_UpdateVideoFormat()/dec_NewPicture() from an other thread just
before they were unloaded.
