> mtk_ppe_init() initializes the l2_flows rhashtable for each PPE
> instance.
>
> The probe failure path releases these resources with
> mtk_ppe_deinit(). However, after a successful probe, mtk_remove()
> tears down the network devices without calling mtk_ppe_deinit(),
> leaving the PPE rhashtable resources allocated.
>
> Call mtk_ppe_deinit() during device removal before freeing the network
> devices.
