The current ordering of code in device_del() triggers a WARN_ON() in device_links_purge(), because of an unexpected link status.
The device_links_unbind_consumers() call in device_release_driver() has to take place before device_links_purge() for the status of all links to be correct, so move the device_links_purge() call in device_del() after the invocation of bus_remove_device() which calls device_release_driver().
