From 04256b4a8fc73f54cd14f20867882c299728a446 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2009 13:20:23 -0800 Subject: sysfs: reference sysfs_dirent from sysfs inodes The sysfs_dirent serves as both an inode and a directory entry for sysfs. To prevent the sysfs inode numbers from being freed prematurely hold a reference to sysfs_dirent from the sysfs inode. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: add comment] Signed-off-by: Eric W.
