OK, I see what you want to achieve and the macro is actually buggy,
because it leaves unbalanced references behind.

But the kerneldoc really needs to say that the caller is required to
obtain a reference on adev before passing it here, because that
reference will be dropped and the object pointed to by adev may not be
present any more after this returns.
