MIPS: vpe-cmp: fix possible memory leak while module exiting

[ Upstream commit c5ed1fe0801f0c66b0fbce2785239a5664629057 ]

dev_set_name() allocates memory for name, it need be freed
when module exiting, call put_device() to give up reference,
so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount
hit to 0. The vpe_device is static, so remove kfree() from
vpe_device_release().

Fixes: 17a1d523aa58 ("MIPS: APRP: Add VPE loader support for CMP platforms.")
