With commit "79bdcb202a35 ARM: 8906/1: drivers/amba: add reset control to
amba bus probe", the amba bus driver needs to be deferred probe because the
reset driver is probed later than the amba bus. However with a deferred
probe, the call to request_resource() in the driver returns -EBUSY. The
reason is the driver has not released the resource from the previous probe
attempt.

This patch releases the resource when amba_device_try_add() returns
-EPROBE_DEFER. This allows the deferred probe to continue.

This is in the wrong place, and misses more serious leaks.

What we have is bad error cleanup code in amba_device_try_add().
Consider what would happen if dev_pm_domain_attach() inside that
function were to return with -EPROBE_DEFER with your patch in
place - we would call release_resource() twice on the same
resource.  Clearly, that's incorrect.

The problem is that an error from
of_reset_control_array_get_optional_shared() just returns, leaving
everything that amba_device_try_add() already did still in place.
So, for example, a subsequent call to amba_device_try_add() will
remap the resource, leaking the previous mapping.
