Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: pca9450: Use devm_register_sys_off_handler
With module test, there is error dump:
------------[ cut here ]------------
notifier callback pca9450_i2c_restart_handler already registered
WARNING: kernel/notifier.c:23 at notifier_chain_register+0x5c/0x88,

Call trace:

So use devm_register_sys_off_handler to let kernel handle the resource
free to avoid kernel dump.
