[PATCH 2/3] powerpc/pseries/memhp: Remove unbalanced dlpar_release_drc() call

From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl at linux.ibm.com>
Callers of dlpar_add_lmb() are responsible for first acquiring the DRC
and releasing it if dlpar_add_lmb() fails.
However, dlpar_add_lmb() performs a dlpar_release_drc() in one error
branch. There is no corresponding dlpar_acquire_drc() in the
function, nor is there any stated justification. None of the other
error paths in dlpar_add_lmb() release the DRC.
This is a potential source of redundant attempts to release DRCs,
which is likely benign, but is confusing and inconsistent. Remove it.
