Maybe zpodd_exit() instead?

I don't think you're supposed to use dev->private_data from libata
core layer.  Just add a new field.  Nobody cares about adding 8 more
bytes to struct ata_device and spending 8 more bytes is way better
than muddying the ownership of ->private_data.

And this gets completely wrong.  What if the device supports DA and
low level driver makes use of ->private_data?

Thanks.
