Sudeep Holla 46edb8d132 firmware: arm_scmi: provide the mandatory device release callback
The device/driver model clearly mandates that bus driver that discover
and allocate the device must set the release callback. This callback
will be used to free the device after all references have gone away.

scmi bus driver is missing the obvious callback which will result in
the following warning if the device is unregistered:

Device 'scmi_dev.1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and
must be fixed. See Documentation/kobject.txt.

Fix the issue by providing scmi_device_release callback. We have
everything required for device release already in scmi_device_destroy,
so we just need to move freeing of the device to scmi_device_release.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
