The reference needs to keep the instance memory around, but also
the instance lock must remain valid. Users will take the lock,
check registration status and release the lock. mutex_destroy()
etc. belong in the same place as the freeing of the memory.
Unfortunately lockdep_unregister_key() sleeps so we need
to switch the an rcu_work.
Note that the problem is a bit hard to repro, because
devlink_pernet_pre_exit() iterates over registered instances.
AFAIU the instances must get devlink_free()d concurrently with
the namespace getting deleted for the problem to occur.

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.
