please avoid these empty lines here.... cc, rv-b, sign-offs, links,

Seeing the doc here gave me a second thought....
the original release should be renamed to _devm_drm_dev_release
and this should be called devm_drm_dev_release without the 'action' word.

But also, this made me more confusing on why this is needed.
Why can't we call put and get back?
The next needs to make it clear on why we need to release in these
scenarios regarless of the number of counters. But do we really
want this?
Can we block the flr if we have users? Perhaps this is the reason
that on my side the flr was not that clean? beucase I had display
so I had clients connected?
