I tried to get around that by setting platform_data to null before
unregistring the device, see:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=151553216030129&w=2


This solutions still seems to miss unregistering the platform devices,
which shows when binding the driver again:

I guess you could use just kalloc here since you memcpy below.
