Yeah, getting rid of the allocations while freeing device would be great
but unfortunatelly is not simple.

Normally the GFP_NOFS allocations do not fail so I think the fuzzer
environment is tuned to allow that, which is fine for coverage but does
not happen in practice. This will be fixed eventually.
