Where you're freeing the media_dev (or its container struct)?

You need to be sure that it will be freed only here.

You can't simply embed a kref at media_device. The problem is that
several conditions should be met for this approach to work:

1) The structs that have struct media_device should not have a kref
their own (I guess that's the current case, but it should be documented
somewhere);

2) the struct that embeds it can only be destroyed when kref refcount
reaches zero. That actually means that the core should either allocate
the struct itself or that a release callback for those structs should
do the kfree(). It means that all drivers should be changed for it to
happen.

Also, if you're adding a kref here, you likely should not have a kref
at struct media_device_instance(), as there's no need for two kref
destroy logic.
