From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The use after free is not triggerable here because the cdev holds the module lock and the only device_unregister is only triggered by module unload, however make the change for consistency. To make this work the cdev_del needs to move out of the struct device release function. This cleans up the error path significantly and thus also fixes a minor bug where the devnum would not be released if cdev_add failed.
