This protects device resources from use after device removal.
There are 3 ways for driver-device unbinding to happen:
- The driver module is unloaded causing the driver to be unregistered.
This can't happen as long as there are open file handles because a
reference is taken on the module.
- The device is removed (Device Tree overlay unloading).
This can happen at any time.
- The driver sysfs unbind file can be used to unbind the driver from the
device. This can happen any time.
v2: Since drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() has to be called after
drm_dev_unplug() we don't want do block ->disable after unplug.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
