Enric Balletbo i Serra 48a2ca0ee3 Revert "mfd: cros_ec: Use devm_kzalloc for private data"
This reverts commit 3aa2177e47.

That commit triggered a new WARN when unloading the module (see at the
end of the commit message). When a class_dev is embedded in a structure
then that class_dev is the thing that controls the lifetime of that
structure, for that reason device managed allocations can't be used here.
See Documentation/kobject.txt.

Revert the above patch, so the struct is allocated using kzalloc and we
have a release function for it that frees the allocated memory, otherwise
it is broken.

 ------------[ cut here ]------------
 Device 'cros_ec' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed.

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.
