dm: sysfs add empty release function to avoid debug warning

This patch just removes an unnecessary warning:
 kobject: 'dm': does not have a release() function,
 it is broken and must be fixed.

The kobject is embedded in mapped device struct, so
code does not need to release memory explicitly here.
