YOu need to be _very_ careful when mixing devm_* and non-devm-managed
resources, especially when interrupt is involved. In this particular
case you are offloading freeing of the interrupt (and disabling it) to
devm, which will happen later, bu you are freeing object table
immediately. This may cause driver crash if interrupt comes while device
is being unbound.

That said, there is a large outstanding series to the driver from Nick
Dryer that I am trying to merge, you may want to coordinate this change
with him.

Thanks.
