Why do you need a .h file for a single .c file that no one else shares
this data?  Just put it all in the .c file please.

Why just one?  Why is this static?

Wht if dev is NULL?

Why are you poking around in a random device's driver's owner?

That's not ok.  And probably totally racy.

Handle module reference counts properly, not like this.

And why does it even matter that you incremented the module reference
count?  What is that "protecting" you from?

Who calls this function?

And if the device doesn't have a driver?  boom :(

Don't do this.

So the whole driver is here just to read, directly from memory, a single
32 bit value?  Doesn't that seem like a lot of overkill?  Why can't the
caller just do this themselves?
