I guess we're relying on devm to release the region. Isn't the whole 
point of using devm_request_free_mem_region that we don't have to 
remember to explicitly release it when the device gets destroyed? I 
believe we had an explicit free call at some point by mistake, and that 
caused a double-free during module unload. See this commit for reference:

     drm/amdkfd: fix svm_migrate_fini warning
     
     Device manager releases device-specific resources when a driver
     disconnects from a device, devm_memunmap_pages and
     devm_release_mem_region calls in svm_migrate_fini are redundant.
     
     It causes below warning trace after patch "drm/amdgpu: Split
     amdgpu_device_fini into early and late", so remove function
     svm_migrate_fini.

Furthermore, I guess we are assuming that nobody is using the GPU when 
the module is unloaded. As long as any processes have /dev/kfd open, you 
won't be able to unload the module (except by force-unload). I suppose 
with ZONE_DEVICE memory, we can have references to device memory pages 
even when user mode has closed /dev/kfd. We do have a cleanup handler 
that runs in an MMU-free-notifier. In theory that should run after all 
the pages in the mm_struct have been freed. It releases all sorts of 
other device resources and needs the driver to still be there. I'm not 
sure if there is anything preventing a module unload before the 
free-notifier runs. I'll look into that.

   Felix
