the patch is good, but I don't think you need to declare mp2_dev
because to_pci_dev(dev) should work even without hodling the
reference of dev.

I also have to agree with Markus that something like:

struct device *dev __free(put_device) = ...; /* it can also be NULL */

would work nicer.

Thanks,
Andi
