drivers: base: Free devm resources when unregistering a device
In the current code, devres_release_all() only gets called if the device
has a bus and has been probed.
This leads to issues when using bus-less or driver-less devices where
the device might never get freed if a managed resource holds a reference
to the device. This is happening in the DRM framework for example.
We should thus call devres_release_all() in the device_del() function to
make sure that the device-managed actions are properly executed when the
device is unregistered, even if it has neither a bus nor a driver.
This is effectively the same change than commit 2f8d16a ("devres:
release resources on device_del()") that got reverted by commit
a525a3d ("driver core: free devres in device_release") over
memory leaks concerns.
This patch effectively combines the two commits mentioned above to
release the resources both on device_del() and device_release() and get
the best of both worlds.
Fixes: a525a3d ("driver core: free devres in device_release")
