Hi Jens and James,

The ublk char device still needs to be deleted even though START_DEV
isn't called given the char device is added in ADD_DEV's handler, so
the current logic is correct.

The root cause is that 'ublk_chr_class' is destroyed too early, so
the following patch should fix the issue.

diff --git a/drivers/block/ublk_drv.c b/drivers/block/ublk_drv.c

        idr_for_each_entry(&ublk_index_idr, ub, id)
                ublk_remove(ub);

        idr_destroy(&ublk_index_idr);
        unregister_chrdev_region(ublk_chr_devt, UBLK_MINORS);
 }


Thanks, 
Ming
