of/device: Rework to use common platform_device_alloc() for allocating devices

The current code allocates and manages platform_devices created from
the device tree manually.  It also uses an unsafe shortcut for
allocating the platform_device and the resource table at the same
time. (which I added in the last rework; sorry).

This patch refactors the code to use platform_device_alloc() for
allocating new devices.  This reduces the amount of custom code
implemented by of_platform, eliminates the unsafe alloc trick, and has
the side benefit of letting the platform_bus code manage freeing the
device data and resources when the device is freed.
