I am primarily concerned about what happens after an unsolicited disconnect
(USB cable pulled). That is the mst critical part in USB drivers and often
not handled correctly.

rmmod and disconnect via sysfs are different and (hopefully) handled
correctly. However, the code in usb_streamlabs_wdt_disconnect()

 >>> +     /* Stop sending messages to the device */
 >>> +     streamlabs_wdt->intf = NULL;

and the code in usb_streamlabs_wdt_cmd()

 >>> +     if (unlikely(!wdt->intf))
 >>> +             return -ENODEV;

suggest that there is a situation where the USB device is disconnected
but the watchdog device is still active. That is what I am concerned
about.
