Subject: [PATCH 01/23] sysfs: sysfs_remove_dir() needs to invalidate the dentry
Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2006 14:00:37 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11428920371618-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060320215009.GA19665@kroah.com>
When calling sysfs_remove_dir() don't allow any further sysfs functions
to work for this kobject anymore. This fixes a nasty USB cdc-acm oops
on disconnect.
Many thanks to Bob Copeland and Paul Fulghum for taking the time to
track this down.
