And the issue seems to be that the corresponding devres group is not allocated. Normally, devres_open_group() is called from __hid_device_probe() but Hyper-V HID driver overrides 'hid_dev->driver' with 'mousevsc_hid_driver' stub and basically re-implements __hid_device_probe() by calling hid_parse() and hid_hw_start() but not devres_open_group(). hid_device_probe() does not call __hid_device_probe() for it. Later, when the driver is removed, hid_device_remove() calls devres_release_group() as it doesn't check whether hdev->driver was initially overridden or not. The issue seems to be related to the commit 62c68e7cee33 ("HID: ensure timely release of driver-allocated resources") but the commit itself seems to be correct. Fix the issue by dropping the 'hid_dev->driver' override and the now unneeded hid_parse()/hid_hw_start() calls. One notable difference of the change is hid_hw_start() is now called with HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT which implies HID_CONNECT_HIDRAW. This doesn't seem to cause any immediate issues but 'HID_CONNECT_HIDINPUT | HID_CONNECT_HIDDEV' combo was used in the driver for a long time and it is unclear whether hidraw was excluded on purpose or not.
