software_node_notify(), on KOBJ_REMOVE drops the refcount twice on managed software nodes, thus leading to underflow errors. Balance the refcount by bumping it in the device_create_managed_software_node() function.
The error [1] was encountered after adding a .shutdown() op to our fsl-mc-bus driver.
