Hi Lawrence,

Please include all maintainers listed by get_maintainer.pl. My scripts collect

Hrm... the cleanup logic in this driver definitely has something to be desired.
sony_nc_handles_cleanup is called at the end of this function, and it checks for
handles != NULL.... and this is called from too many places.
