[PATCH v2] leds: lp5860: fix LED teardown ordering using devm_add_action_or_reset()

Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Surendra Singh Chouhan <[email protected]>

The driver previously disabled the chip in its remove callback before
devres unregistered the LEDs. LED unregistration turns the LEDs off
through the driver brightness callback, which accessed disabled hardware.

Fix this by registering a devm action via devm_add_action_or_reset()
immediately after enabling the chip in lp5860_device_init(). Due to devm
LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) teardown ordering, devm will automatically
unregister all multicolor LEDs before the devm action disables the chip.

This allows removing lp5860_device_remove() and lp5860_remove() completely.
In addition, convert mutex_init() to devm_mutex_init() to ensure proper
devm-managed mutex lifecycle.

v2:
 - Use full name "Surendra Singh Chouhan" in From header and Signed-off-by.
 - Convert chip disable sequence to devm_add_action_or_reset() as suggested by Lee Jones, allowing removal of lp5860_device_remove() and lp5860_remove() entirely.
 - Use devm_mutex_init() for lock initialization.
