sysfs, kernfs: introduce kernfs_notify()
Introduce kernfs interface to wake up poll(2) which takes and returns sysfs_dirents. sysfs_notify_dirent() is renamed to kernfs_notify() and sysfs_notify() is updated so that it doesn't directly grab sysfs_mutex but acquires the target sysfs_dirents using sysfs_get_dirent(). sysfs_notify_dirent() is reimplemented as a dumb inline wrapper around kernfs_notify(). This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
