Which is the kind of landmine it is best avoided in drivers/, so it
would be nice to get WARN_ON() during device register when
dev->shutdown() methods *that are going to be ignored* because of
class/bus handlers are non-NULL...

Either that, or the device->shutdown() methods should always be called,
and drivers that should not/need not have them should be fixed...
