Why only 16?  Just have to start somewhere?

Just curious, why a rwsem?  They can be slower than a normal semaphore,
is this really a contentious lock?

Why do we care about the opens here?  Do you only want the "child
driver" to have open called once, like a tty driver?  Does it matter?

Again, just curious.

Those last 9 lines can be rewritten as just:

	if (!ret)
		put_device(&gdev->dev);

	return ret;

Nit, some of these initial dev_dbg() calls might be able to be removed,
as ftrace should handle the tracing code now, right?

This protects this module from being unloaded, but how do you pass on
the module reference counts to the "child" gnss driver?  Am I just
missing that logic here somewhere?

Anyway, minor things, this looks really clean, nice job.
