Hi Hans,

Thank you for the review.

I don't pretend otherwise.

That's not entirely true. The original patch reduced the likelihood of a
crash (as well as security issues) but did not fix them. The only reason
this never was a grave security issue was that the condition wasn't
user-triggerable.

Additionally, long-lived IOCTL calls such as dequeueing media events won't
be possible without proper media device lifetime management this is more
than just "a nice cleanup".

Admittedly I didn't think it'd become this complicated but it did, given
that both need to work without issues.

I'd like to remind that the two should be unified, hence the state before
this patch is a better starting point for that work than where the series
started off. Do note that it would be possible now to merge struct
media_device and struct media_devnode without touching all drivers.

Even if I'd re-separate struct media_device and struct media_devnode
allocations, the convoluted code paths would remain. I'm not sure how much
simplification that would achieve.

I'd rather merge struct media_devnode and struct media_device in the same
set. That's actually useful work that takes us forward while leaving the
workaround in place for drivers that need it.

The driver that registered the media device. Ref only exists for drivers
that don't properly release the memory in the release callback (this one).
