[PATCH] soc: fsl: guts: Fix a resource leak in the error handling path of 'fsl_guts_probe()'

If an error occurs after 'of_find_node_by_path()', the reference taken for
'root' will never be released and some memory will leak.
Instead of adding an error handling path and modifying all the
'return -SOMETHING' into 'goto errorpath', use 'devm_add_action_or_reset()'
to release the reference when needed.
Simplify the remove function accordingly.
As an extra benefit, the 'root' global variable can now be removed as well.
Fixes: 3c0d64e867ed ("soc: fsl: guts: reuse machine name from device tree")
