Huh, actually the arizona drivers do show this (it was being masked in
my logs by another unrelated bug).  I guess the Wolfson guys aren't
working with upstream much (though Charles did write the orignal code
here...).

The issue is the MFD core, it shouldn't be using managed allocations
here - the error reported by the assert is entirely correct.  If the
CODEC driver is bound and unbound it'll not be possible to reload it
as things stand.  

Your driver is correct but the implementation needs to be fixed -
possibly with an API change on free since at the minute the cells to be
freed don't get passed back into the MFD core when deallocating.
