If userspace ignores the\nerrors and continues to use its references to these dangling entities, a\nUAF will promptly follow.\n\nWe have 2 options; continue to return the error, but ensure that all of\nthe infrastructure is torn down accordingly or continue to treat this\ncondition as a warning by emitting the message but returning success.\nIt is thought that the original author's intention was to emit the\nwarning but keep the device functional, less the force feedback feature,\nso let's go with that."
