Subject: pxa168: fix double deallocation of managed resources

From: Alexey Khoroshilov <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 0e03fd3e335d272bee88fe733d5fd13f5c5b7140 ]

Commit 43d3ddf87a57 ("net: pxa168_eth: add device tree support") starts to use managed resources by adding devm_clk_get() and devm_ioremap_resource(), but it leaves explicit iounmap() and clock_put() in pxa168_eth_remove() and in failure handling code of pxa168_eth_probe(). As a result double free can happen.

The patch removes explicit resource deallocation. Also it converts clk_disable() to clk_disable_unprepare() to make it symmetrical with clk_prepare_enable().
