Hi Greg,
While playing with hotplug memory remove on 2.6.24-mm1, I
noticed that /sysfs directory entries are not getting removed.
sysdev_unregister() used to call kobject_unregister().
But in 2.6.24-mm1, its only dropping the ref. It should
call kobject_del() to remove the object. Correct ?
With this change, the directories are getting removed
correctly. Comments ?
Thanks,
Badari
sysdev_unregister() should call kobject_del() to remove
the object.
