Agreed. I'll remove it; we can always add it back if a use case arises.

I now have:

struct tsm_dev *tsm_register(struct device *parent, struct pci_tsm_ops *pci_ops)
{
	struct tsm_dev *tsm_dev __free(put_tsm_dev) = alloc_tsm_dev(parent);
	struct device *dev;
	int rc;

	if (IS_ERR(tsm_dev))
		return tsm_dev;

	dev = &tsm_dev->dev;
	rc = dev_set_name(dev, "tsm%d", tsm_dev->id);
	if (rc)
		return ERR_PTR(rc);

	/* Complete PCI registration before exposing the TSM to class lookup. */
	rc = tsm_register_pci(tsm_dev, pci_ops);
	if (rc)
		return ERR_PTR(rc);

	rc = device_add(dev);
	if (rc) {
		if (pci_ops)
			pci_tsm_unregister(tsm_dev);
		return ERR_PTR(rc);
	}

	/* Notify TSM userspace that PCI/TSM operations are now possible. */
	if (pci_ops)
		kobject_uevent(&dev->kobj, KOBJ_CHANGE);

	return no_free_ptr(tsm_dev);
}
