This broken. Consider what happens if you have tho ports registered and
you unbind the first.
Someone else sent a fix for this here
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190514033219.169947-1-wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com
That fix also has some issues, but is still better given the current
state this driver is in.
