Well, as long as this crap violates the driver model by using kfree() on
a device...  Devices are refcounted and must only be freed when the
refcount drops to zero.

This is exactly why we have platform_device_alloc(),
platform_device_register_full() and friends - so that people don't have to
fsck around with kzalloc themselves and get it wrong like the above does.

Would you like me to pass your details to gregkh for another one of his
public humilation exercises over basic kernel programming stuff? :)
