The non-devm_ version is marked deprecated. As for the order, I am not
really sure. I am
concerned about someone updating the brightness while its being removed.
So the HID device
would already have been stopped and then I would issue a request and
wait for completion.

If hid_hw_request and hid_hw_wait can handle this situation we are fine.

Yes, my mistake. This does not call hid_hw_close(). I will fix it in v4.

I will remove all of the explicit calls to devm_kfree (and others) in v4
(and test it thoroughly).

Thank you for the helpful review.
