[ Upstream commit 04922b7445a1950b86f130a1fe8c52cc27b3e30b ] The char device setup and cleanup has device lifetime issues regarding when parts are initialized and cleaned up. The initialization of struct device is done incorrectly. device_initialize() needs to be called on the 'struct device' and then additional changes can be added. The ->release() function needs to be setup via device_type before dev_set_name() to allow proper cleanup. The change re-parents the cdev under the wq->conf_dev to get natural reference inheritance. No known dependency on the old device path exists.
