When review device driver modules which attach to amba bus, found
several modules are not using devm_*() apis to manage resource. As

different failures.
So this patch series is to convert to use devm_*() for moudules which
are attached to amba bus to manage resource and get more robust and
neat code.
Patch 0003 "drivers/rtc/rtc-pl031.c: Convert to use devm_*()" has been
verified on 96boards Hikey. Other patches can pass building but have
not really tested on hardware.
If your plan is to actually remove usage of
amba_request_regions() and amba_release_regions(), you should do so in
its own patch sets instead of hiding that in a useless cleanup series.
