Note we must call drm_minor_unregister to notify userspace of the unplug of the device, so calling drm_dev_unregister is not completely wrong the problem is that drm_dev_unregister does too much. This commit fixes drm_unplug_dev by not only reverting commit a39be606f99d ("drm: Do a full device unregister when unplugging") but by also adding a call to drm_modeset_unregister_all before the drm_minor_unregister calls to make sure all sysfs entries are removed before calling device_del(minor->kdev) thereby also fixing the second set of oopses caused by just reverting the commit.
