You are missing the mutex_destroy() calls here which you are
doing in ssam_cdev_device_release().

Thank you for noticing this! This code is based on Surface DTX code
which has the same problem, I'll send in a fix for that shortly.

Or maybe move the mutex_init calls below this check
(before the up_write()) since I don't think the client can
be accessed by any code until the up_write is done?

Yes, that would also be possible, but I'd prefer adding the
mutex_destroy() calls in the failure path. To me that seems a bit easier
to reason about.

Thanks,
Max
