Since open file descriptors may still be pointing into kernel memory where the device structures used to be, entirely correct kernel panics protect the driver from being unbound as we should not be unbinding it before those dangling pointers have been made safe. According to the documentation found inside drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.c, drm_dev_unplug() should be used instead of drm_dev_unregister() in order to make a device inaccessible to users as soon as it is unpluged. Follow that advice to make those possibly dangling pointers safe, protected by DRM layer from a user who is otherwise left pointing into possibly reused kernel memory after the driver has been unbound from the device.
