Message-ID: <m1ws2636ob.fsf@fess.ebiederm.org> Date: Wed, 04 Nov 2009 02:50:28 -0800 From: ebiederm@...ssion.com (Eric W. Biederman) To: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de> Cc: <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, <kay.sievers@...y.org> Subject: [PATCH] driver core: Don't remove kobjects in device_shutdown. 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. Acked-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@...y.org> Signed-off-by: Eric W.
