From 7f6df440b8623c441c42d070bf592e2d2c1fa9bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Haneen Mohammed <hamohammed...@gmail.com> Date: Fri, 11 May 2018 07:15:42 +0300 Subject: drm: Match sysfs name in link removal to link creation From: Haneen Mohammed <hamohammed...@gmail.com> commit 7f6df440b8623c441c42d070bf592e2d2c1fa9bb upstream. This patch matches the sysfs name used in the unlinking with the linking function. Otherwise, remove_compat_control_link() fails to remove sysfs created by create_compat_control_link() in drm_dev_register().
