These should all be using ps3_system_bus_get_driver_data() and
ps3_system_bus_set_driver_data():
struct ps3flash_private *priv = ps3_system_bus_get_driver_data(&dev->sbd)

It seems that will result in a memory leak. Why did you
think the kfree() should be removed?
Won't this work?
kfree(ps3_system_bus_get_driver_data(&dev->sbd));
ps3_system_bus_set_driver_data(&dev->sbd, NULL);
