As there is not a platform device about, could reduce the number of globals
in here, but job for another day.

Also devm fun might be useful to reduce the need for manual error handling
and remove().

So generally this enables some potential tidying up, but what you have
here LGTM and would be first step in that process anyway.
If I run out of other stuff to do (unlikely ;) then I might take a stab
at such a cleanup sometime.
