Thanks for the review, Greg.

I looked at most_deregister_component() in core.c — it already calls
disconnect_channel() for every linked channel via bus_for_each_dev().
So the manual cleanup loop in comp_exit() and the comment saying
"mostcore currently doesn't call disconnect_channel()" are outdated.

For v3 I plan to remove the manual cleanup loop, the stale comment,
and the BUG_ON entirely — leaving comp_exit() to just call
most_deregister_configfs_subsys() and most_deregister_component(),
which already handles the full teardown.

Does that match what you had in mind?
