[PATCH v2] sbus: Introduce the use of the managed version of kzalloc

[Himangi Saraogi]

This patch moves data allocated using kzalloc to managed data allocated
using devm_kzalloc and cleans now unnecessary kfrees in probe and remove
functions. The header file is added to make the devm function explicitly
available.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used for making a part of
the change:

@platform@
identifier p, probefn, removefn;
@@
struct platform_driver p = {
  .probe = probefn,
  .remove = removefn,
};

@prb@

This version looks much better.
If you in the subject replaces sbus: with display7seg: then you can add my:

"sbus:" is very generic, but this patch touches only
this single driver.
