Before\nthe lock is taken, psp_dev_unregister() can run to completion:\ntake psd->lock, clear out state, unlock, drop the registration\nreference.\n\nThe expectation is that the lock prevents device unregistration,\nbut much like with netdevs special care has to be taken when\n\"upgrading\" a reference to a locked device. Add the missing\ncheck if device is still alive. psp_dev_is_registered() exists\nalready but had no callers, which makes me wonder if I either\nforgot to add this or lost the check during refactoring..."
