Without actually seeing the code or giving more information there is a slim
chance of somebody being able to help you.
Did you set the .owner field of your driver's device operations to
THIS_MODULE?
Also, why do you need to use try_module_get?
I used try_module_get so that module count will not e zero and this bug should not be hit.
