Make sure to drop the references taken when looking up the subsys devices during probe on probe failure (e.g. probe deferral) and on driver unbind.
Similarly, drop the SCP device reference after retrieving its platform data during probe to avoid leaking it.
Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver data from going away.
