IMHO unless it involves a driver_override it is a bug to fix. So have you considered tainting on driver_override instead of bind/unbind? You did, I'm sure because several peoplel voiced that approach already, but unless I missed something, you didn't share your thoughts about it yet. https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1790612298.git.u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com/ would be a suitable thread to share your opinion.
