The point of devm_ is that you don't need to free resources you have
allocated using devm_. The core will release them when the device is
removed.

In this case, you might want to ensure the hardware will not generate
any more interrupts, but you can leave the core to call free_irq().

Please look at all your devm_*free() like calls, and remove them if
they are not needed.

So you can delete devm_mdiobus_free(). That probably means you can also remove 
LAN743X_INIT_FLAG_MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED.

And this comment can go.
