A Coccinelle warning.
It's not necessary to free memory allocated with devm_xxx
and using these free functions maybe lead to a double free that
will corrupt the resource subsys. So, I just remove them.

This code could also be using devm_ioremap_resource rather than
devm_request_mem_region and devm_ioremap.
