But the patch was correct. sysfs retains a pointer to the kobject, it should take a ref on it? > I suggest you try to fix the oops > you were seeing in either another way, or in a way that does not break > other things :) Didn't we demonstrate that the code which broke was already broken? And that it has other problems regardless of the kobject pinning fix, such as the userpace-holding-a-file-open-wedges-khubd problem?
