You have convinced me only partially. v4l2_subdev_init should *not* be managed:
it really is just an initialization function and for non-i2c and non-spi subdevs
there is generally no cleanup needed (or it is done automatically when the
v4l2_device is unregistered).

For v4l2_i2c/spi_subdev_init it makes sense to manage that since there cleanup
is needed. Actually, to be precise: cleanup is only needed if the i2c adapter
is released before the v4l2_device is unregistered. In general the order is
unknown, so cleanup is needed.
