This patch series fixes the following

1) fix might_sleep warning on socket shutdown:
   Fix sock_shutdown to avoid calling kernel_sock_shutdown
   while holding spin_lock.

2)fix various coding standard warnings
   Make shutdown get called in a process context instead, using
   system_wq.

3) make nbd device wait for its users.
   When a timeout or error occurs then nbd driver simply kills
   the block device. Many filesystem(s) example ext2/ext3 don't
   expect their buffer heads to disappear like that. Fix this
   by making nbd device wait for its users.

4) use device_attr macros for sysfs attribute
   use DEVICE_ATTR_RO for sysfs pid attribute.

Pranay Kr. Srivastava (4):
  fix might_sleep warning on socket shutdown.
  fix various coding standard warnings
  make nbd device wait for its users.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
