Subject: [PATCH] dix: Fix use after free in input device shutdown

This fixes access to freed heap memory via dev->master. E.g. when
running BarrierNotify.ReceivesNotifyEvents/7 test from
xorg-integration-tests:

The problem is caused by dev->master being not reset when disabling the
device, which then causes dangling pointer when the master device itself
is being deleted when exiting whole server.

Note that RecalculateMasterButtons() requires dev->master to be still
valid, so we can reset it only at the end of function.
