Subject: staging: bcm2835-audio: Release resources on module_exit()

From: Kirill Marinushkin <[email-masked]>

[ Upstream commit 626118b472d2eb45f83a0276a18d3e6a01c69f6a ]

In the current implementation, `rmmod snd_bcm2835` does not release
resources properly. It causes an oops when trying to list sound devices.

This commit fixes it.

The details WRT allocation / free are described below.

Device structure WRT allocation:

pdev
  \childdev[]
    \card
      \chip
        \pcm
        \ctl

Allocation / register sequence:

* childdev: devm_kzalloc      - freed during driver detach
* childdev: device_initialize - freed during device_unregister
* pdev: devres_alloc          - freed during driver detach
* childdev: device_add        - removed during device_unregister
* pdev, childdev: devres_add  - freed during driver detach
* card: snd_card_new          - freed during snd_card_free
* chip: kzalloc               - freed during kfree
* card, chip: snd_device_new  - freed during snd_device_free
* chip: new_pcm               - TODO: free pcm
* chip: new_ctl               - TODO: free ctl
* card: snd_card_register     - unregistered during snd_card_free

Free / unregister sequence:

* card: snd_card_free
* card, chip: snd_device_free
* childdev: device_unregister
* chip: kfree
