This driver did not originally set kobj.parent so it likely had potential a use after free bug which this patch fixes. We convert from device_register to device_initialize/cdev_device_add. While we are at it we use put_device instead of kfree (as recommended by the device_initialize documentation). We also remove an unnecessary extra get_device from the code.
