There was no problem if I just load and unload the module. But if I
write to the device using "ls > /dev/temp" and then unload the
module, I would get slab corruption.

you return different value as what has really been consumed:

        if (*f_pos + count > MAX_DSIZE)
                count1 = MAX_DSIZE - *f_pos;

        if (copy_from_user (temp_dev->data+*f_pos, buf, count1)) {

this is still buggy.. what if f_pos is huge???

Well, if you look at my program, the complete code is like this:

        if (*f_pos > MAX_DSIZE)
                goto wrap_up;
        if (*f_pos + count > MAX_DSIZE)
                count1 = MAX_DSIZE - *f_pos;

        if (copy_from_user (temp_dev->data+*f_pos, buf, count1)) {
