A CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE test of removing a device-dax region
provider (like modprobe -r dax_hmem) yields:
kobject: 'mapping0' (ffff93eb460e8800): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 2000)

Due to attempting ida_free() on an ida object that has already been
freed. Devices typically only hold a reference on their parent while
registered. If a child needs a parent object to complete its release it
needs to hold a reference that it drops from its release callback.
Arrange for a dax_mapping to pin its parent dev_dax instance until
dax_mapping_release().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
