No, this is much worse than the previous version.

This is bad in a number of ways. What we need is add a "destroy" method
to the role and not add

  if (ci->role == CI_ROLE_HOST)
    hackity_hackity();

to ten different places in the driver. This is really bad, even worse
than the fact that with this patch you're returning an uninitialized
'ret' in case of non-host, which (correct me if I'm wrong) should
explode straight away, which in turn makes me wonder how is this
patchset fully tested as it claims to be.
