Subject: [PATCH 38/61] sysfs: reimplement sysfs_drop_dentry()
From: Tejun Heo <htejun@...il.com>
This patch reimplements sysfs_drop_dentry() such that remove_dir() can
use it to drop dentry instead of using a separate mechanism. With
this change, making directories reclaimable is much easier.
This patch used to contain fixes for two race conditions around
sd->s_dentry but that part has been separated out and included into
mainline early as commit 6aa054aadfea613a437ad0b15d38eca2b963fc0a and
dd14cbc994709a1c5a64ed3621f583c49a27e521.
