Does this not need any locking?

Nor this?

The driver has a lot of blank lines between functions. I don't think this
adds any benefit - it just makes less of the code visible.

I assume all these exports are used?

There's a reasonable chance that someone else will choose identifiers such
as `hotplug_devices' and `hotplug_list'. Let's hope they're not put in a
header file which gets included here...

Peculiar mixture of paranoid and trusting parenthesisation there..
It'll malfunction if jiffies happens to wrap - use time_before() or
time_after() to fix.

We normally indent thusly:

and if you do that here, this code will look nicer.

<wonders what ds is>
Oh, it's a file-wide `struct dock_station *'.
Suggest that it be given a more file-widey name.
Would it be better if `ds' be defined at compile time? Perhaps not..

It doesn't depend upon anything else?
