Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>, "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...stanetworks.com> Subject: [PATCH 23/20] driver core: Don't remove kobjects in device_shutdown. From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com> device_shutdown is defined to just shutdown the hardware and to not clean up any kernel data structures. Therefore don't put the kobjects for /sys/dev and /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char. This ensures we don't remove /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char while we still have symlinks from there to the actual devices. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
