How was this tested? on what platforms?

There is quite a bit of other things to do in remove to properly cleanup
what is done in probe.

Also, what happens when a 'remove' is triwhen there are GPIOs that
are still requested and in use, especially if they are GPIO IRQs.

Also, what about runtime PM?

In short, this seems very premature and I suspect untested.
