Unfortunately devcoredump infrastructure does not provide and interface for us to force the device removal upon the pci_remove time of our device. The devcoredump is linked at the device level, so when in use it will prevent the module removal, but it doesn't prevent the call of the pci_remove callback. This callback cannot fail anyway and we end up clearing and freeing the entire pci device. Hence, after we removed the pci device, we shouldn't allow any read or free operations to avoid segmentation fault.

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.
