I was expecting that the devres allocated struct qmp would stick around
until the struct device's release callback came. As described in my
answer to Mani yesterday I was wrong.

As such you need to make sure that struct qmp stays around until
qmp_remove() and all qmp_put() calls has been made.

I presume a reasonable way to achieve this is to not use devm to
allocate our struct qmp, add a kref to the object. So this would have to
be a kref_put() on that instead of the platform_device_put() I asked you
to implement here.

Sorry about that.


The rest of the patch looks good.
