Well, it would, if the current driver would use devm for registration. But it
appears not to do it that way (line 375):
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/input/misc/twl6040-vibra.c?id=refs/tags/v4.6-rc4#n375
So we either have to fix line 375 or add the proposed explicit unregister call.
Research shows me that you did propose devm_input_register_device() some years
ago but this API was never included:
