I agree with most of your analysis.
So we agree that patch 2 is a real fix.
We agree that tespmd should be fixed in next release to not update
.device pointer. But keep it for now as it may be a workaround for
some drivers (need to be deeply analyzed).

But about this patch 1, it is resetting rte_device.driver,
which is used by the function rte_dev_is_probed().
It says rte_device has no rte_driver attached anymore.
This patch is the same idea as
391797f04208 ("drivers/bus: move driver assignment to end of probing")
So I consider this is a real fix.
