Platform devices show some inconsistencies with how devm resources are released when the device has been probed and when it hasn't. In particular, we can register device-managed actions no matter if the device has be bound to a driver or not, but devres_release_all() will only be called if it was bound to a driver or if there's no reference held to it anymore. If it wasn't bound to a driver and we still have a reference, devres_release_all() will never get called. This is surprising considering that if the driver isn't bound but doesn't have any reference to it anymore, that function will get called, and if it was bound to a driver but still has references, that function will get called as well. Even if that case is fairly unusual, it can easily lead to memory leaks. The plan is, with the next patch, to make it consistent and enforce that devres_release_all() is called no matter what situation we're in. For now, it just tests for the current behaviour and skips over the inconsistencies.
