That's just it (which is why I said I was not worried).

Running device_links_unbind_consumers() with the parent lock held may
deadlock if another child of the same parent also is a consumer of the
current device (which really is a corner case), but the current code
has this problem - it goes away with your change.

But dev->bus->need_parent_lock checks are missing in there AFAICS, let
me cut a patch to fix that.
