Hm, whether you solve this with the default group stuff to
auto-remove, or remove explicitly at the right time doesn't matter
much. The underlying problem you have here is that it's done way too
late. sysfs removal (like all uapi interfaces) need to be removed as
part of drm_dev_unregister. I guess aside from the split into fini_hw
and fini_sw, you also need an unregister_late callback (like we have
already for drm_connector, so that e.g. backlight and similar stuff
can be unregistered).

Papering over the underlying bug like this doesn't really fix much,
the lifetimes are still wrong.
