It is not device_del() you need to stall, but the remove() function of
the device driver.

Once all drivers have been unbound the DMA API can be reconfigured and
all existing DMA mappings must be concluded before this happens,
otherwise there will be problems.

So, stalling something like unregister_netdevice() would be a better
target - though stalling forever on driver unbind would not be
acceptable.
