Use get_device and put_device in the open and close functions to
make sure the device doesn't get freed while a file descriptor is
open.

Isn't this slightly racy (there is no guarantee that occ->buffer is updated
by the time it is used by the write function, and there is no synchronization
across CPUs which ensures that the pointer is actually written to memory
before it is used) ?

Thanks,

Yes, it is. And now that I think about it, there's nothing to prevent 
the driver remove (and freeing buffer) while a write is ongoing. 
Probably need to lock in the remove function...
