Subject: [PATCH] asix: do not free array priv->mdio->irq

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Used to be allocated and required freeing, but now
priv->mdio->irq is now a fixed sized array and should no longer be
free'd.

Issue detected using static analysis with CoverityScan

Fixes: e7f4dc3536a400 ("mdio: Move allocation of interrupts into core")
