Sudeep Holla 9905f728b0 mailbox: arm_mhu_db: Fix mhu_db_shutdown by replacing kfree with devm_kfree
The mhu_db_channel info is allocated per channel using devm_kzalloc from
mhu_db_mbox_xlate which gets called from mbox_request_channel. However
we are releasing the allocated mhu_db_channel info using plain kfree from
mhu_db_shutdown which is called from mbox_free_channel.

This leads to random crashes when the channel is freed like below one:

Fix it by replacing kfree with devm_kfree as required.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
