The old mechanism kept a struct cdev for each fw device, but fops->release
would reference this struct after the device got freed in some cases.

Definitions as per IEEE 1212 and IEEE 1394:
Node ID: Concatenation of bus ID and local ID. 16 bits long.
Bus ID: Identifies a particular bus within a group of buses
interconnected by bus bridges.
Local ID: Identifies a particular node on a bus.
PHY ID: Local ID of IEEE 1394 nodes. 6 bits long.
Never ever use a variable called node_id for anything else than a node ID.

Instances of struct file_operations and struct fw_card_driver can be
qualified as "const". Ditto with struct fw_descriptor.data, struct
fw_device_id, and predefined instances of struct fw_address_region,
at least in the current implementation.
Data qualified as const is placed into the .rodata section which won't
be mixed with dirty data.
