From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit bd50a974097bb82d52a458bd3ee39fb723129a0c ]

It will cause memory leakage when use driver API devm_free_percpu()
to free memory allocated by devm_alloc_percpu(), fixed by using
devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within devm_free_percpu().

Fixes: ff86aae3b411 ("devres: add devm_alloc_percpu()")
