Greg Kroah-Hartman 44577f1d98 platform/x86: intel_pmc_core: do not create a static struct device 
A struct device is a dynamic structure, with reference counting.
"Tricking" the kernel to make a dynamic structure static, by working
around the driver core release detection logic, is not nice.

Because of this, this code has been used as an example for others on
"how to do things", which is just about the worst thing possible to have
happen.

Fix this all up by making the platform device dynamic and providing a
real release function.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
