Currently if a Paladin uses Devotion on several people, the moment he gets dispelled all the devotion links are dispelled as well.
Previously devotion links are only removed when the person being devoted is dispelled, but will not be removed when the Paladin is dispelled.
I don't recall any changes in official server regarding this, closest proof I can find in regards to this is this post in iroWiki forum :-

and no once you have used devotion on someone, the effect will last until the skill wears off, you can either walk of screen, have the person your saccing dispelled, and those are the only methods that come to mind right now[ xD
It mentions specifically the only way for devotion to be removed is :-
1. Skill wears off (timer)
2. Devoter and Devotee seperated by exceeding distance
3. The person being devoted gets dispelled
Thus I think its a bug that dispelling a Paladin will remove all its current devotion links to others as well.
