This still looks wrong, the release function for the device should free the memory here, not this kfree, as the reference count in the embedded 'struct device' handles the memory logic for the whole structure (if not, then something is REALLY wrong...)
You _do_ have a release function for the device, right? If not, you should be getting loud messages in the kernel log when releasing a device here.
