During mt8195_afe_init_clock(), mt8195_audsys_clk_register() was called
followed by several other devm functions. At mt8195_afe_deinit_clock()
located at mt8195_afe_pcm_dev_remove(), mt8195_audsys_clk_unregister()
was called.

However, there was an issue with the order in which these functions were
called. Specifically, the remove callback of platform_driver was called
before devres released the resource, resulting in a use-after-free issue
during remove time.

At probe time, the order of calls was:
1. mt8195_audsys_clk_register
2. afe_priv->clk = devm_kcalloc
3. afe_priv->clk[i] = devm_clk_get

At remove time, the order of calls was:
1. mt8195_audsys_clk_unregister
3. free afe_priv->clk[i]
2. free afe_priv->clk

To resolve the problem, we can utilize devm_add_action_or_reset() in
mt8195_audsys_clk_register() so that the remove order can be changed to
3->2->1.
