If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold commit fe0f3168169f7c34c29b0cf0c489f126a7f29643 upstream. Make sure to drop any reference taken by bus_find_device() in the sysfs callbacks that are used to create and destroy devices based on device-tree entries.
