Bleck. This is situations where you should not be using devres at all.

It is not that arm_smmu_impl_remove() should not use devres, the
problem is that arm_smmu_impl_probe() has mis-ordered the devres
callbacks if ops->device_remove() is going to be manually freeing
things that probe allocated.

IMHO you should just put the goto unwind back into arm_smmu_device()
probe and not use devm for ops->device_remove(). That will put things
in their proper order and no problem.

Because changing arm_smmu_init_one_queue to avoid devm looks worse..

And this is kind of ugly
