I forgot to account for the fact that the device core holds a reference to a device added with device_initialize() that need to be released with a corresponding put_device() to reach a 0 refcount at the end of the lifecycle. This led to a NULL pointer reference when freeing the device when e.g. unbidning the host device in sysfs. Fix this and use the device .release() callback to free the IDA and free:ing the memory used by the RPMB device.
