Why not just fix this up and determine the "type" of the device before you cast anything? > Make the release of the mcb devices and their mcb bus explicit. That's good, but now you have a new bus type which is a bit odd just for the bus controller. It's not necessarily bad, but not generally what other busses do. As an example, USB controllers are not their own bus type, but rather, a different type of device on the same bus. Same goes for greybus devices/controllers. So perhaps try doing that instead of creating a whole new bus here? thanks, greg k-h
