Virtio wants to release used indices after the corresponding virtio device has been unregistered. However, virtio does not hold an extra reference, giving up its last reference with device_unregister(), making accessing dev->index afterwards invalid. I actually saw problems when testing my (not-yet-merged) virtio-ccw code: - device_add virtio-net,id=xxx -> creates device virtio<n> with n>0 - device_del xxx -> deletes virtio<n>, but calls ida_simple_remove with an index of 0 - device_add virtio-net,id=xxx -> tries to add virtio0, which is still in use... So let's save the index we want to release before calling device_unregister().
