alloc_dax_region() sets parent drvdata before reserving the resource
and registering sysfs attributes. If either operation fails, the
region is freed but drvdata still points to it. A later allocation
on the same parent is rejected by the non-NULL drvdata check.
The devres unregister action also leaves drvdata pointing to the
released region. Clear drvdata on both allocation error and
unregister paths.
Fixes: d7fe1a67f658 ("dax: add region 'id', 'size', and 'align' attributes")
