[PATCH v2 3/4] ACPI: PCC: Free channel on OpRegion deactivation

Message-ID <[email protected]>
ACPICA calls the address space setup callback with
ACPI_REGION_DEACTIVATE when a PCC OperationRegion is torn down.

The PCC setup callback currently allocates a fresh pcc_data and requests
the mailbox channel before looking at the function argument. If ACPICA
deactivates a region, this can leave the existing region context and
mailbox channel unreleased, and may also request a channel during
teardown.

Handle ACPI_REGION_DEACTIVATE before allocation. Free the PCC mailbox
channel, release the region context and clear the context pointer.
