In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/radeon: free iio for atombios when driver shutdown

Fix below kmemleak when unload radeon driver:

iio was allocated in atom_index_iio() called by atom_parse(),
but it doesn't got released when the dirver is shutdown.
Fix this kmemleak by free it in radeon_atombios_fini().
