And if there is a good reason for doing this, then it should be done in v4l2_device_unregister_subdev or even in the i2c core, not in each drivers. And why does coccinelle apparently find this in e.g. cs5345.c but not in saa7115.c, which has exactly the same construct? For that matter, I think almost all v4l i2c drivers do this.
