Semaphores should not be used unless we're using their counting property. 
We almost never do.  Please switch this to a mutex.

Preferred style is to avoid wrappers like this and to simply open-code the
mutex_lock/mutex_unlock at all sites.

spose so.  Many would code this as

struct edac_device_ctl_info *edac_device_alloc_ctl_info(unsigned sz_private,
	char *edac_device_name, unsigned nr_instances, char *edac_block_name,
	unsigned nr_blocks, unsigned offset_value,
	struct edac_attrib_spec *attrib_spec, unsigned nr_attribs)
{

but that's not a heck of a lot nicer.

What a lot of argumetns this function has.

Just use NULL here

hrm, edac_align_pointer is weird.  I assume it's doing something which is
specific to the peculiarities of the EDAC space/implementation?

I'd suggest that edac_align_pointer() be changed to return void*, so you
can remove the tpecasts in the callers.

here also.

And here.

Preferred kernel style is

	dev_ctl = kmalloc(total_size, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (dev_ctl == NULL)
		return NULL;

dev_inst is a pointer, and here we're adding a pointer to a pointer.  How
peculiar.  Can this be done better?

If you turn the (char *) into (void *) then you can delete the
(struct edac_device_block *).

dittoes.

Use kzalloc above, remove this.

one-space-after-comma.

I think snprintf() did that, but the manpage is a bit vague.  The kernel's
implementation always null-terminates, anyway.

What locks edac_device_list?  device_ctls_mutex, I guess.  The introductory
comment should describe this requirement.  Please check all callers.

This code can deadlock.  It calls edac_workq_teardown->flush_workqueue
while holding device_ctls_mutex.  But the workqueue callback also takes
device_ctls_mutex.  If that flush_workqueue() finds that it has to wait for
the callback function to complete, it will wait forever.

The code is much better commented that the usual offerings.  Thanks ;)

hm, the combination of kobects and completions causes alarm bells to
jangle.  Various code at various times has attempted to implement "wait
until the object goes away" synchronisation, and it has usually (always?)
been wrong.

So.  What's going on here?

yeah, we need to have a look at this.  Having other code wait upon the
->release() callback is problematic, and ->release callbacks are supposed
to free objects, but this one doesn't.

Please cc Greg KH <greg@...ah.com> on the description, because he's the man

Yes, there are, I think, situations where this can cause hangs.  Greg will
know more.  iirc they're obscure things like the process which is running
edac_device_unregister_main_kobj() itself has an fd open against the
relevant sysfs file.

The solution will be to just remove the wait, get the refcounting right.

Lots of sysfs/kobject work here.  We should ask Greg to review it rather
than relying upon the overstressed peanut gallery.
