From 641e6f30a095f3752ed84fd9d279382f5d3ef4c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2006 15:44:26 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: sysfs_remove_dir() needs to invalidate the dentry When calling sysfs_remove_dir() don't allow any further sysfs functions to work for this kobject anymore. This fixes a nasty USB cdc-acm oops on disconnect. Many thanks to Bob Copeland and Paul Fulghum for taking the time to track this down.
