Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Remove ksets from sysfs eagerly

This removes ksets from sysfs immediately in kset_unregister() to help
prevent module unload/reload problems.  It also adds more variability
to the CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE option by delaying release functions
for a somewhat random time, to change the order in which they can be
called.
