Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2007 20:07:28 -0800 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de> Subject: [PATCH 1/5] Revert "driver core: refcounting fix" This reverts commit 63ce18cfe685115ff8d341bae4c9204a79043cf0. It was the incorrect fix and causes a reference counting bug whenever any driver module is removed from the system. Mike Galbraith <efault@....de> is looking for the real fix for his problem.
