This also looks like a nice code simplification.

Any reason you're killing this comment, instead of adapting it? The
function is even no longer static...

These were just optimizations and therefore can be dropped now?

Do we need any serialization here? Previously, the driver core made
sure we could get a reference only if the device was still registered;
not sure if we need any further guarantees now.
