I have actually inserted printk() each line in video_i2_remove().  When
rmmod this driver, video_i2c_release() (and also kfree) is called while
executing video_unregister_device().  Because video_unregister_device()
releases the last reference to data->vdev.dev, then v4l2_device_release()
callback executes data->vdev.release.

So use after freeing video_i2c_data actually happened.

In this patch, devm_kzalloc() is called with client->dev (not with vdev->dev).
So the allocated memory is released when the last user of client->dev
is gone (maybe just after video_i2_remove() is finished).
