Seriously? That's what you are calling this function?

{sigh}

Please, go get this patch series reviewed by other, experienced, Intel
developers, before you send it out again. There's loads of things wrong
with this series, and they can help you out much easier, and nicer, than
I'm going to be here.

Oh, and NEVER use "raw" kobjects, by doing that, you know you are doing
something wrong in a driver.
