Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] rust: devres: implement register_release()

register_release() is useful when a device resource has associated data,
but does not require the capability of accessing it or manually releasing
it.

If we would want to be able to access the device resource and release the
device resource manually before the device is unbound, but still keep
access to the associated data, we could implement it as follows.

	struct Registration<T> {
	   inner: Devres<RegistrationInner>,
	   data: T,
	}

However, if we never need to access the resource or release it manually,
register_release() is great optimization for the above, since it does not
require the synchronization of the Devres type.
