In the lines of code following this new assignment, there are four uses of
hpdev->hbus besides the one at the bottom of the function that causes the
use-after-free error.  With 'hbus' now available as a local variable, it looks
rather strange to have those other places still using hpdev->hbus.  I'm thinking
they should be shortened to just 'hbus' for consistency, even though such
changes aren't directly related to fixing the bug.
