You should replace kfree(ep_dev) with put_device(&ep_dev->dev),
otherwise double free will be triggered.

So you need to revise the patch...

Thanks Ming.
I have certain doubts related to device_unregister()

In some of USB related code..
kfree() is called after device_unregister() ...  device_unregister()
also internally calls put_device()... is that correct behavior or I'm
missing something here..
ex.
file : drivers/usb/gadget/fsl_udc_core.c
function : static int __init fsl_udc_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)

If no other external reference to device before put_device in device_unregister,
dev.release will be called from put_device to free something, which depends
on your implement for dev.release.

Once reaches err_unregister, double free of udc_controller may be
triggered, so fix should be needed.
