Why are we letting the device be removed while it is in use by other drivers? Can't we pin the device with get_device() so it can't be removed and then prevent the driver from being removed until all the consumer drivers drop the reference, i.e. suppress sysfs unbind? Otherwise it looks like a generic problem that all provider devices, clks, regulators, gpios, etc. have to deal with and thus this hand-rolled mechanism can't be right. > mbox_free_channel(qmp->mbox_chan); > + kref_put(&qmp->refcount, qmp_handle_release); > > return 0; > }
