Hm on the unregister side we don't have the race, there we remove
everything and then send out the uevent. But there the uevent is also
generated in a separate step, so I wonder whether we shouldn't do the same
for register for symmetry ...

Anyway this looks good, nice catch, I'll add cc: stable and merge.
