This should be done only when (!recover_policy) and so you can merge
it with the 'if' block just above down_write. Actually you can move down_write()
a little bit up as well, just after ->init()

Oh, that's not enough and you need to get the relevant bits out from
the add_dev_interface() routine as well:

err_out_kobj_put:
kobject_put(&policy->kobj);
wait_for_completion(&policy->kobj_unregister);
