Subject: [PATCH 2/2] kobject: wait until kobject is cleaned up before freeing module
kobject_put() may become asynchronously because of
CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE, so once kobject_put() returns, the caller may
expect the kobject is released after the last refcnt is dropped, however
CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE just schedules one delayed work function
for cleaning up the kobject. Inside the cleanup handler, kobj->ktype and
kobj->ktype->release are required.
It is supposed that no activity is on kobject itself any more since
module_exit() is started, so it is reasonable for the kobject user or
driver to expect that kobject can be really released in the last run of
kobject_put() in module_exit() code path. Otherwise, it can be thought as
one driver's bug since the module is going away.
When the ->ktype and ->ktype->release are allocated as module static
variable, it can cause trouble because the delayed cleanup handler may
be run after the module is unloaded.
Fixes the issue by flushing scheduled kobject cleanup work before
freeing module.
