ata: pata_parport: switch to dynamic root device
Driver core expects devices to be dynamically allocated and will, for example, complain loudly when no release function has been provided. Use root_device_register() to allocate and register the root device instead of open coding using a static device. Note that this also fixes a reference leak in the unlikely event that device_register() ever fails.
