Well, we are towards the end of device removal at this point, having called
bus_remove_device(dev) for example, but still we've got it on dpm_active ...

This may not be technically wrong (ie. we should be able to recover from
that), but it seems conceptually wrong and with pm_sleep_rwsem in place it
can be avoided.
