Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: hns3: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata() and devm_kfree()

The devm_kfree function allocates memory that is released when a
driver detaches. Also the driver core clears the driver data to NULL
after device release. So remove the unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()
and devm_kfree().
