[PATCH] devres: release resources on device_del()

[Tejun Heo]

Some platform devices are driven without driver attached, so managed
resources can be acquired without driver attached.  Make sure such
resources are released by calling devres_release_all() in
device_del().

This one fixes oops on pata_platform and pata_legacy unload.  libata
being the only user of devres at the moment.  I think this can go
through libata-dev#upstream.
