If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexander Duyck commit b6eae0f61db27748606cc00dafcfd1e2c032f0a5 upstream. Unlike asynchronous initialization in the core we have not yet associated the device with the parent, and as such the device doesn't hold a reference to the parent. In order to resolve that we should be holding a reference on the parent until the asynchronous initialization has completed.
