The error unwind after this is wrong:

int idxd_wq_add_cdev(struct idxd_wq *wq)
{
	rc = idxd_wq_cdev_dev_setup(wq);
	if (rc < 0)
		return rc;

        // At this point we have done device_initialize() only
	rc = cdev_device_add(cdev, dev);
	if (rc) {
		idxd_wq_cdev_cleanup(wq, CDEV_FAILED);


static void idxd_wq_cdev_cleanup(struct idxd_wq *wq,
				 enum idxd_cdev_cleanup cdev_state)
{
	if (cdev_state == CDEV_NORMAL) {
	} else {
		device_unregister(dev);  // But nobody called device_register!

The 'enum idxd_cdev_cleanup' is really gross, you should avoid that.

This feels like an error that crept in from splitting dev_setup and
add_cdev wrongly

There should be two functions 'allocate' which brings things to the
point that 'put_device()' is the "undo"

And then "add" which does the eventual device add.

To get to that model here you want to move the ida_simple_remove into
the release function

And you need to split this patch up
