The misc device is registered / unregistered while having the NE PCI 
device probe / remove, as a dependency to actually having a PCI device 
working to expose a misc device.

The way the codebase is split in files is mainly the ioctl logic / misc 
device in one file and the PCI device logic in another file; thus not 
have all the codebase in a single big file. Given the misc device 
(un)register logic above, the misc device needs to be available to the 
PCI device setup logic.
