We will set bus->dev = &md->dev in the end of sdw_master_device_add().
That's why we remove the test. But now I am wandering does it make sense
to set bus->dev = &md->dev? Maybe it makes more sense to set bus->dev =
sdw control device. 
A follow up question is that should slave device a child of bus device or
master device? I would prefer bus device if it makes sense. 
I will check bus->dev and parent and remove bus->dev = &md->dev in the
next version.

Yes, I will allocate sdw_master_device here and free it in
sdw_master_device_release().

Sure, I will check it.
