Hmm. I can't see that unregistering such devices ever works as you say,
given that __release_resource expects a non-NULL parent pointer. Either
we should be setting the parent pointer when initialising devices from
dt or we should teach __release_resource to not care. I'll have a go at
fixing that.

It looks like drivers/usb/dwc3/dwc3-exynos.c only unregisters the
top-level device, not children. This top-level device has no
IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM} resources judging by
arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5250.dtsi, which would explain why that driver
isn't exploding: __release_resource will never get called.

Anton, Felipe: 

Does unregistering the parent ensure the children get cleaned up, or
does it leave them dangling in the dwc3-exynos driver?

Cheers,
Mark.
