This would be useful as inline kerneldoc documentation at initdev_found().

And this as kerneldoc at initdev_probe_done().

What happens if the calls or the call arguments aren't balanced, e.g. 
due to a mistake in an error path?  The kernel will hang?

(BTW, much, though possibly not all, of the "History" section of your 
changelog should be below the --- delimiter, and the "v6" in the subject 
should be within the [PATCH ...] prefix.)
