^ The status_chg property is on the stack. You canât do that, because after you go out
of scope the property is garbage. You should dynamically allocate.

I bet that even after you fix that youâll crash anyway.
Note is that on many platforms the path of removing platform devices is borken.
I see that youâre using PM, thatâs even more problematic.

The good news is that we can probably fix it if you give us a detailed log and
stack trace.
