MIPS: vpe-cmp: fix possible memory leak while module exiting
[ Upstream commit c5ed1fe0801f0c66b0fbce2785239a5664629057 ] dev_set_name() allocates memory for name, it need be freed when module exiting, call put_device() to give up reference, so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hit to 0. The vpe_device is static, so remove kfree() from vpe_device_release(). Fixes: 17a1d523aa58 ("MIPS: APRP: Add VPE loader support for CMP platforms.")
