[PATCH v5 1/6] coresight: configfs: Update memory allocation / free for configfs elements

From: Mike Leach
Date: Mon Dec 19 2022 - 18:46:59 EST


Previously, the objects backing the configfs directories and files were
created using devm managed memory on the coresight device.

Now we are adding configfs load/unload, configurations can be loaded
many times over the lifetime of the device, so it is more appropriate to
use normally allocated and freed memory.
