[PATCH] drivers/base: fix devres handling for master device

We weren't handling the devres issues for the master device failing a
bind, or being unbound properly.  Add a devres group to contain these,
and release the resources at the appropriate points.

Greg, if you'd be kind enough to queue this for an -rc release, it'd
help plug a hole I discovered earlier this week in the component
helper.  Thanks.
