Good catch, but it seems that i messed up the locking part event more, sorry.
Because if devm_add_action_or_reset() does a reset operation, a deadlock
will occur since ee1004_cleanup_bus_data() will try to lock the mutex again.

I can provide a cleanup patch to fix both problems.

Thanks,
Armin Wolf
