Subject: [PATCH] Fix a bdi reregistration race, v3
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2016 14:29:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56F9A22F.7020002@sandisk.com> (raw)

Avoid that the sd driver registers a BDI device with a name that
is still in use. This patch avoids that the following warning gets
triggered:

WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 203 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x68/0x80()
