Subject: [PATCH] Adding dummy release functions to avoid warnings.

From: Vitaliy Ivanov <vitalivanov@xxxxxxxxx>

Trivial fix for #9690.
Added simple release functions that doing nothing.
Not sure whether we can leave it as is or to rework using
platform_device helpers like platform_device_alloc.
This approach is used in many drivers.
