But it also goes in the wrong direction. The data structure is accessible 
after the .remove() handler returns and thus should outlive the probe/remove 
sequence through proper reference counting. We're of course not doing a good 
job here as we kfree() it in .remove() instead of reference-counting it 
properly, and that should be fixed, but this patch makes the fix more complex 
as we'll have to move back from devm_kzalloc().
