Oh, I was under impression that the following line is necessary for
dasd_delete_device to work that way.
device->base_discipline = base_discipline;
I could move it before the if statement before removing module_put from
it. Does it make sense?

Once the discipline is associated with the device, deleting the device
takes care of decrementing the module's refcount. Doing it manually on
this error path causes refcount to artificially decrease on each error
while it should just stay the same.
