While this seems legit per se, my eyes caught this:

Non-devm....

...followed by devm.

It means more ordering bugs in the ->remove() and error path are lurking
around. Can you double check and be sure that we do not have a case where
non-devm registration code followed by devm?

If that is the case it has to be fixed as well.
