Commit 9b61e302210e (spi: Pick spi bus number from Linux idr or spi alias) ceased to unregister SPI buses with fixed bus numbers. Moreover this is visible only if CONFIG_SPI_DEBUG=y is set or when trying to re-register the same SPI controller. rmmod spi_pxa2xx_platform (with CONFIG_SPI_DEBUG=y): [ 26.788362] spi_master spi1: attempting to delete unregistered controller [spi1] modprobe spi_pxa2xx_platform: [ 37.883137] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:19.0/pxa2xx-spi.12/spi_master/spi1' [ 37.894984] CPU: 1 PID: 1467 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 4.16.0-rc4+ #21 [ 37.902384] Call Trace: ...

It finds only those controllers that were registered with dynamic SPI bus numbers. Only conditional cleanup between dynamic and fixed bus numbers is to remove allocated IDR.
