I'm not aware of any such rule. Sure ideally everything should use devm, because it makes life just so much easier. But I've seen mixed use in plenty of cases. With that said converting fully to devm is not necessarily a bad idea. Regards, Hans
But given that the regulator already has a devm inside, I think we are screwed here and we should probably try to devm-ize the module. I seem to remember that someone posted a devm version of hid_allocate_device/hid-add_device, but I don't think this ever went upstream (because no use).
