[PATCH kernel] powerpc/powernv/ioda2: Remove redundand free of TCE pages

When IODA2 creates a PE, it creates an IOMMU table with it_ops::free
set to pnv_ioda2_table_free() which calls pnv_pci_ioda2_table_free_pages().

Since iommu_tce_table_put() calls it_ops::free when the last reference
to the table is released, explicit call to pnv_pci_ioda2_table_free_pages()
is not needed so let's remove it.

This should fix double free in the case of PCI hotuplug as
pnv_pci_ioda2_table_free_pages() does not reset neither
iommu_table::it_base nor ::it_size.

This was not exposed by SRIOV as it uses different code path via
pnv_pcibios_sriov_disable().

IODA1 does not inialize it_ops::free so it does not have this issue.

We have not seen any bug reports because we have not tested the actual
PCI hotunplug in hardware very well.
