steps on a null?

What I meant is that the memory that is backing a device must not be freed until the reference count of a device has dropped to zero. If a struct device is embedded in a larger structure that means signaling a completion from inside the release function (ibtrs_clt_dev_release()) and not freeing the struct device memory (kfree(clt) in free_clt()) before that completion has been triggered.
