[PATCH v5 2/9] EDAC/aspeed: Free the interrupt before the mem_ctl_info on remove

The ECC interrupt is devm-managed, so it is only released after .remove()
has returned, and masking the controller does not wait for a handler
already running on another CPU. edac_mc_free() can therefore free the
mem_ctl_info the handler uses as its context while it is still running.

Register the handler with request_irq() and free it before the memory
it uses. aspeed_probe() returns as soon as config_irq() succeeds, so
devres has no error path left to unwind.

Changes in v5:
- Use request_irq()/free_irq() rather than devm_request_irq() followed
  by an explicit free, and keep the interrupt number in a file-scope
  variable so aspeed_remove() does not have to call platform_get_irq()
  a second time.

Changes in v4:
- Drop the Cc: stable tag.

Changes in v2:
- New patch.
