Commit Message

The following patch introduced an issue.
       dmaengine: mic_x100_dma: use the new helper to simplify the code

This issue is :

	kfree(mic_dma_dev)
	.....
	dma_async_device_unregister(mic_dma_dev->device);

Free the memory, and use it again.

So use devm_kzalloc to allocate mic_dma_dev.
When the Devres try to release the resources, it will call release at the
following order:

	dma_async_device_unregister(mic_dma_dev->device);
	.....
	kfree(mic_dma_dev)
