When the rescind callback is *not* set, vmbus_onoffer_rescind() makes the
call to vmbus_device_unregister(). But it does so bracketed with get_device()/
put_device(). Your code here does not do the bracketing. Is there a reason for
the difference? Frankly, I'm not sure why vmbus_onoffer_rescind() does the
bracketing, and I can't definitively say if it is really needed. So I guess I'm
just asking if you know. :-)
