Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Driver Core: do not oops when driver_unregister() is called for unregistered drivers
Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 16:49:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1243554543-11117-2-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090528234155.GA10930@kroah.com>

From: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org>

We also fix a problem with cleaning up properly when initializing
drivers and devices, so checks like this will work successfully.

Portions of the patch by Linus and Greg and Ingo.
