[PATCH v2] pmdomain: core: Wait for device link removals before dropping genpd->dev

genpd->dev is embedded in struct generic_pm_domain and its release
function is empty, so providers free the containing genpd with a plain
kfree() once of_genpd_remove_last() returns, ignoring its refcount.

Since genpd->dev is registered on the genpd provider bus, fw_devlink
creates device links to it, and those are torn down asynchronously.
Nothing made genpd_remove() wait for those teardowns, so the provider
could free the memory backing genpd->dev while the queued workers still
used it.

This is reachable at boot on qrb2210, where the firmware rejects PC mode
and psci_cpuidle_domain_probe() removes all the CPU PM domains before
returning -EPROBE_DEFER. The bug is asymptomatic on defconfig, but shows
up when enabling KASAN or INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON. In some builds, it
causes the kernel to crash a few hundred ms into the boot.

Call device_link_wait_removal() before dropping the final reference. All
link removal work is queued from device_del(), via
device_links_driver_cleanup() and device_links_purge(), which precedes
genpd_free_data(), and flush_workqueue() waits for it to complete.

v2: remove this note from the commit text.

Note: This patch was LLM-assisted. I reproduced the issue and tested
this patch on hardware, and I did my best to verify it by hand. However,
I'm far from an expert in pmdomain, so YMMV.
