Is that a known problem? >> Yes, I want to emphasize on Marks words: "a known *problem*" I have objected strongly to this new "fixture" by Fred and backed up by Benny. They decided to only hold a deviceid as long as a layout references it. And not like before, until unmount. I think they are totally wrong with regard to current servers and implementation and a setup that might enjoy what is done now, will not exist for at least 3 years or more. An argument was made that current code is more simple. But I have demonstrated that all that is needed is a one-line get_ref at device add. And that iteration on all devices at umount time that was there before and removed in latest code. !!!
