Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: sysfs: fix, kobject pointer clean up needed after
 kobject release

The sysfs clean up self test like in the below code fails, since
fs_info->device_dir_kobject still points to its stale kobject.
Reseting this pointer will help to fix this.

open_ctree()
{

ret = btrfs_sysfs_add_one(fs_info);
::
+       btrfs_sysfs_remove_one(fs_info);
+       ret = btrfs_sysfs_add_one(fs_info);
+       if (ret) {
+               pr_err("BTRFS: failed to init sysfs interface: %d\n", ret);
+               goto fail_block_groups;
+       }
