[PATCH] fsi: Aspeed: Fix a potential double free

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Sun Dec 26 2021 - 11:56:17 EST


'aspeed' is a devm_alloc'ed, so there is no need to free it explicitly or
there will be a double free().

Remove the 'release' function that is wrong and unneeded.

Fixes: 606397d67f41 ("fsi: Add ast2600 master driver")

This patch is completely theoretical. It looks good to me, but there is a
little too much indirections for me. I'm also not that familiar with
fixing issue related to 'release' function...

... So review with care :)
