    sysfs: Implement sysfs_delete_link · 746edb7a
    Eric W. Biederman 提交于
    When removing a symlink sysfs_remove_link does not provide
    enough information to figure out which tagged directory the symlink
    falls in.  So I need sysfs_delete_link which is passed the target
    of the symlink to delete.
    
    sysfs_rename_link is updated to call sysfs_delete_link instead
    of sysfs_remove_link as we have all of the information necessary
    and the callers are interesting.
    
    Both of these functions now have enough information to find a symlink
    in a tagged directory.  The only restriction is that they must be called
    before the target kobject is renamed or deleted.  If they are called
    later I loose track of which tag the target kobject was marked with
    and can no longer find the old symlink to remove it.
    
    This patch was split from an earlier patch.
