I'm not objecting to that. The point here is that the resources should
be freed in the reversed order. devm-allocated resources are deferred
to be freed after the explicit driver ->remove() callback. At the end
it should not interleave with each other, i.o.w. it should be
probe: devm followed by non-devm
remove: non-devm only.
