16 We do this in two parts, like we do device_register. First, we remove
17 it from all the subsystems with device_del, then we decrement the
18 reference count via put_device. If that is the final reference count,
19 the device will be cleaned up via device_release above. Otherwise, the
20 structure will stick around until the final reference to the device is
21 dropped.
