Looks nice!
Maybe the mini usage guide here could be a little more explicit, e.g.,
Move the "removable" attribute from USB to the device core so it can
be used by other subsystems / buses.
By default, devices do not have a "removable" attribute in sysfs.
If a subsystem or bus driver wants to support a "removable"
attribute, it should call device_set_removable() before calling
device_register() or device_add(), e.g.,
device_set_removable(dev, DEVICE_REMOVABLE);
device_register(dev);
The possible values and the resulting sysfs attribute contents are:
DEVICE_REMOVABLE_UNKNOWN -> "unknown"
DEVICE_REMOVABLE -> "removable"
DEVICE_FIXED -> "fixed"
Convert the USB "removable" attribute to use this new device core
functionality. There should be no user-visible change in the
location or semantics of attribute for USB devices.

I probably wouldn't check for "dev" being non-NULL in these two
functions unless you have a use case that requires it.
