Something got allocated into compat_str_array and gets leaked here.

I count 3 gets and 1 put, isn't the module reference count increase
showing that? This looks like it hasn't been tested. Why would we do a
get every time we want to do a reset? Do one get when the device is
registered or opened and one put when the device is unregistered or
closed. We don't want erratic userspace behavior that the reset
property of a device can come and go.
