I forgot to write it, sorry. I was going to explain the decision to leave 
the bus matching up to the driver.

The modprobe, rmmod, modprobe sequence was tested. But I think that isn't 
what you meant.

Are you saying there is a missing NULL check? That is,

 static int nubus_device_remove(struct device *dev)
 {
 	struct nubus_driver *ndrv = to_nubus_driver(dev->driver);
 	int err = -ENODEV;
 
-	if (ndrv->remove)
+	if (dev->driver && ndrv->remove)
 		err = ndrv->remove(to_nubus_board(dev));
 	return err;
 }

Anyway, I will revise the patch and test the unbind operation on a device 
not already bound.

Thanks for your feedback.
