Subject: [PATCH] devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API
devm_free_percpu()
It will cause memory leakage when use driver API devm_free_percpu()
to free memory allocated by devm_alloc_percpu(), fixed by using
devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within devm_free_percpu().
Fixes: ff86aae3b411 ("devres: add devm_alloc_percpu()")
