cpufreq: qcom-hw: drop devm_xxx() calls from init/exit hooks



Commit f17b3e44 ("cpufreq: qcom-hw: Use
devm_platform_ioremap_resource() to simplify code") introduces
a regression on platforms using the driver, by failing to initialise
a policy, when one is created post hotplug.

When all the CPUs of a policy are hoptplugged out, the call to .exit()
and later to devm_iounmap() does not release the memory region that was
requested during devm_platform_ioremap_resource().  Therefore,
a subsequent call to .init() will result in the following error, which
will prevent a new policy to be initialised:

With that being said, the original code was tricky and skipping memory
region request intentionally to hide this issue.  The true cause is that
those devm_xxx() device managed functions shouldn't be used for cpufreq
init/exit hooks, because &pdev->dev is alive across the hooks and will
not trigger auto resource free-up.  Let's drop the use of device managed
functions and manually allocate/free resources, so that the issue can be
fixed properly.
