OK, I think I see what's going on here. There is an asymmetry between
the legacy path and the MMIO path. The legacy path is OK but the MMIO
path indeed has a memory leak, caused by the direct call to
release_resource() in the cleanup-path, when the legacy path calls
release_region() instead.

Adding Terry Bowman to Cc as he wrote the code.

Here's a candidate fix:

From: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@xxxxxxx>
Subject: i2c: piix4: Fix a memory leak in the EFCH MMIO support

The recently added support for EFCH MMIO regions introduced a memory
leak in that code path. The leak is caused by the fact that
release_resource() merely removes the resource from the tree but does
not free its memory. We need to call release_mem_region() instead,
which does free the memory. As a nice side effect, this brings back
some symmetry between the legacy and MMIO paths.

Yi Zhang, can you please test this patch and confirm that it solves the
memory leak?

Terry, please review/comment.

If my analysis is correct then the sp5100_wdt and thinkpad_acpi drivers
suffer from a similar leak and need to be fixed the same way.
