Subject: pinctrl: meson: Drop pinctrl_unregister for devm_ registered device
From: Wei Yongjun <[email protected]>
commit 5b236d0fde21d88351420ef0b9a6cb7aeeea0c54 upstream.
It's not necessary to unregister pin controller device registered with devm_pinctrl_register() and using pinctrl_unregister() leads to a double free.
This is detected by Coccinelle semantic patch.
