Instead of this, just use class_create().  Then you don't need to
specify a release function at all.

Use class_device_create() instead, it's simpler, and will work better
than creating your own class device in the future.

EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() perhaps?

class_destroy() instead, if you use class_create().

Other than these minor things, looks good to me.
