I find this super-racy.

If the this function is called just before ...

... this, then you have a risk of using a dandling pointer.

You also didn't test that the platform_ops != NULL, so there's a risk of
dereferencing a NULL pointer.

Not so good, eh?

It's a classic (I've had the same sort of issues with SoundWire), when
you export ops from one driver than can be removed, then additional
protection is needed when using those callbacks.
