From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 47a459ecc800a17109d0c496a4e21e478806ee40 upstream. Several MFD child drivers register their class devices directly under the parent device. This means you cannot blindly do devres conversions so that deregistration ends up being tied to the parent device, something which leads to use-after-free on driver unbind when the class device is released while still being registered.
