Currently the memory region is not released the folowing error is
observed.

/testsuites # insmod omap-serial.ko
[  130.746917] omap_uart omap_uart.0: memory region already claimed
[  130.753143] omap_uart: probe of omap_uart.0 failed with error -16
[  130.759338] omap_uart omap_uart.1: memory region already claimed
[  130.765380] omap_uart: probe of omap_uart.1 failed with error -16
[  130.771606] omap_uart omap_uart.2: memory region already claimed
[  130.777679] omap_uart: probe of omap_uart.2 failed with error -16
[  130.783905] omap_uart omap_uart.3: memory region already claimed
[  130.789947] omap_uart: probe of omap_uart.3 failed with error -16

Fix it by releasing the memory region.
