[PATCH 3/6] s390/netiucv: Make use of iucv_alloc_device()

Make use of iucv_alloc_device() to get rid of quite some code. In addition
this also removes a cast to an incompatible function (clang W=1):

drivers/s390/net/netiucv.c:1716:18: error: cast from 'void (*)(const void *)' to 'void (*)(struct device *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Werror,-Wcast-function-type-strict]
1716 | dev->release = (void (*)(struct device *))kfree;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
