What happens if an application still has the media device open and you forcibly
remove the last driver? I think it should be OK since the media_devnode struct
isn't freed until the last open filehandle closes. But it is good to test this.

Perhaps only add media-dev-allocator if CONFIG_USB is enabled?

Can't the lock be moved down to just before list_del? Or am I missing something?

Perhaps change this to:

#if defined(CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER) && defined(CONFIG_USB)

Since for now this only makes sense for USB devices.
