So long as the parent doesn't call the child's detach, this is great. I'm pretty sure this is the case, but we need to make sure there's no double freeing introduced

I don't think the parent can interfere here as DEVICE_ATTACH calls the child method directly without giving the parent driver a chance to interpose.
