struct media_devnode is currently embedded at struct media_device. While this works fine during normal usage, it leads to a race condition during devnode unregister. the problem is that drivers assume that, after calling media_device_unregister(), the struct that contains media_device can be freed. This is not true, as it can't be freed until userspace closes all opened /dev/media devnodes. In other words, if the media devnode is still open, and media_device gets freed, any call to an ioctl will make the core to try to access struct media_device, with will cause an use-after-free and even GPF. Fix this by dynamically allocating the struct media_devnode and only freeing it when it is safe.
