request_region should be used with release_region, not request_mem_region.

Geert Uytterhoeven pointed out that in the case of drivers/video/gbefb.c,
the problem is actually the other way around; request_mem_region should be
used instead of request_region.

The semantic patch that finds/fixes this problem is as follows:
