Hi Steven,

One general question inline.  I'm not particularly familiar with this area
of the kernel, so maybe I'm missing something obvious, but having
.destroy free the kvm_device which wasn't created in .create seems
'unusual'. 

Otherwise, FWIW looks good to me.

Nothing to do with your patch as such... All users do the same.

This seems miss balanced. Why do we need to free the device by hand
when we didn't create it in the create function?  I appreciate
the comments say this is needed, but as far as I can see every
single callback does kfree(dev) at the end which seems an
odd thing to do.
