> The driver suppresses userspace bind attributes but still registers
> a module exit callback. Unloading it leaves the PCI hierarchy and
> unmanaged IRQ domains and handlers referring to released resources
> and unloaded driver code. Removing only the root bus does not make
> the remaining IRQ state safe.
> 
> Register the driver without an exit callback so a normally loaded
> module cannot be unloaded. This follows the maintainer's suggested
> first step while complete controller removal remains unsupported.
> Keep the tristate option, so loading the driver as a module remains
> possible. This change addresses module unload, not dynamic removal
> of the platform device or existing probe-error cleanup.
