So this clearly was not tested properly as the offending commit breaks
both the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s and the SC8280XP CRD.

I spent some time this afternoon tracking down and considering the best
way to address this before I checked lore and found this proposed fix
(why was I not CCed?).

Nit: I know you have a wide-screen monitor but please follow the coding
style and break your lines at 80 columns for readability. ;)

This is not a proper fix. You register 3-4 class devices and only check
one. Even if your checked the last one, there's no locking or barriers
in place to prevent this from breaking.

Deferred registration of the class devices also risks missing
notifications as you'll be spending time on registration after the
service has gone live.

I'm sure all of this can be handled but as it is non-trivial and the
motivation for the offending commit is questionable to begin with, I
suggest reverting for now.

I'll send a revert for Sebastian to consider.
