Well, something like this untested diff?

Call unregister_blkdev() as soon as __exit function starts, for calling
probe function after cleanup started will be unexpected for __exit function.

Keep probe function no-op until __init function ends, for probe function
might be called as soon as __register_blkdev() succeeded but calling probe
function before setup completes will be unexpected for __init function.
