o.k. I kept this for better code structure.

Sure.

This is better.

Sure will change :)

Yes, It will resolve to &vdev->dev.

reference is already taken when registering the device with nvdimm_bus.

ah Sorry! Will correct this.

'nvdimm_bus_unregister' does that.

yes. Will remove free(vpmem).

Thank you for the review.
