This should be fixed with the following patch which currently sits in
the master branch.

Subject: [PATCH] driver: Fix unregister device after device probe failure
When a device probe fails the device is removed from the active list.
If then the device is unregistered afterwards it is removed from the
active list again resulting in a crash. To fix this initialize the
devices active list entry when removing it from the active list.
