Hm, your patch is linewrapped, and can't be applied :(

Bah, and I did send it to myself first, but I guess my mailer un-flowed it for me :-(. I'll try to find a better mailer.


But more importantly:
static void disk_release(struct kobject * kobj)

Did you try to remove a disk (like a usb device) and see what happens here? Hint, this isn't the proper place to remove the symlink...

Er, yeah. Oops.


*Is* there a sensible place to remove the symlink from, though? Nobody seems to call subsystem_unregister(&block_subsys), which is the place I'd expect to add a call to, and I can't see anything that's otherwise obvious...
