For a simpler diff I could go for devm_get_free_pages()+devm_free_pages(),
but since devres doesn't seem necessary in this case, I think this patch
provides a cleaner solution at the end.

I am not sure if any existing board is affected as I encountered this
issue while experimenting with consumer drivers, thus using a custom DT
on top of sun50i-a64-pine64.dts just for testing. The following DT files
might be affected but only if the iio channel controlled by the iio_mux
multiplexer owns an ext_info attribute which is also exposed on sysfs.
$ grep -Rl 'io-channel-mux' arch

I am also not sure what would be the reference commit for the Fixes tag.
The related ext_info attributes handling was introduced in the first
commit of the iio_mux implementation. If that applies, following the
corresponding Fixes tag.
Fixes: 7ba9df54b091 ("iio: multiplexer: new iio category and iio-mux driver")
