I guess the call to:
device_remove_file(&mdev->devnode.dev, &dev_attr_model);

IMO, This should be, instead, at media_devnode_unregister().

Then, we can change the logic at media_devnode_unregister() to:

void media_devnode_unregister(struct media_devnode *mdev)
{
mutex_lock(&media_devnode_lock);

/* Check if mdev was ever registered at all */
if (!media_devnode_is_registered(mdev)) {
mutex_unlock(&media_devnode_lock);
return;
}

clear_bit(MEDIA_FLAG_REGISTERED, &mdev->flags);
mutex_unlock(&media_devnode_lock);
device_remove_file(&mdev->devnode.dev, &dev_attr_model);
device_unregister(&mdev->dev);
}

This sounds enough to avoid device_unregister() or device_remove_file()
to be called twice.
