Commit 723de0f9171e ("staging: most: remove device from interface
structure") moved registration of driver-provided struct device to
the most subsystem. This updated dim2 driver as well.
However, struct device passed to register_device() becomes refcounted,
and must not be explicitly deallocated, but must provide release method
instead. Which is incompatible with managing it via devres.
This patch makes the device structure allocated without devres, adds
device release method, and moves device destruction there.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
