Indeed, and of course lots of other drivers need this as well. :)

Exactly, but for this case we should fence the workqueue with devres, such that
we can guarantee a scope for a &Device<Bound> for all work items scheduled on
such a workqueue, i.e. provide a &Device<Bound> in run().

Otherwise drivers have to either access device resources with try_access() or
get themselves a &Device<Bound> with the unsafe Device::as_bound() method from
within the run() callback.
