The way I read the supporting code is that when the allocation occurs,
an action is registered on the parent device to call drm_dev_put(), so
as long as the PCI device is dropped, and as far as I could tell it is
when an error is returned, it should be handled automatically. The same
I *think* goes for the platform device variety with Tegra.

However, this is by far the most likely thing for me to have
misunderstood so I'll look through it a second time and would love to
have a second opinion on it.
