mtd: rawnand: meson: Fix a potential double free issue
[ Upstream commit ec0da06337751b18f6dee06b6526e0f0d6e80369 ]
When meson_nfc_nand_chip_cleanup() is called, it will call:
meson_nfc_free_buffer(&meson_chip->nand);
nand_cleanup(&meson_chip->nand);
nand_cleanup() in turn will call nand_detach() which calls the
.detach_chip() which is here meson_nand_detach_chip().
meson_nand_detach_chip() already calls meson_nfc_free_buffer(), so we
could double free some memory.
Fix it by removing the unneeded explicit call to meson_nfc_free_buffer().
