Same question as before: Why is there a release function in the first place ?

[PATCH v3 -next] fsi: aspeed: Fix aspeed device free

[YueHaibing]

'aspeed' is allocted by devm_kfree(), it should not be kfree().
In fact it will be freed while the device released.
Also we grap reference after fsi_master_register() success,
so should put it in fsi_master_aspeed_remove().

The memory is attached to the device, and will thus be freed once the device
is released. Why is the release function needed in the first place ?
