There is a race condition when removing glue directory.
It can be reproduced in following test:

path 1: Add first child device
device_add()
    get_device_parent()
            /*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/
            list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry)
                    if (k->parent == parent_kobj) {
                            kobj = kobject_get(k);
                            break;
                    }
            ....
            class_dir_create_and_add()

path2: Remove last child device under glue dir
device_del()
    cleanup_device_parent()
            cleanup_glue_dir()
                    kobject_put(glue_dir);

If path2 has been called cleanup_glue_dir(), but not
call kobject_put(glue_dir), the glue dir is still
in parent's kset list. Meanwhile, path1 find the glue
dir from the glue_dirs.list. Path2 may release glue dir
before path1 call kobject_get(). So kernel will report
the warning and bug_on.

This is a "classic" problem we have of a kref in a list
that can be found while the last instance could be removed
at the same time.

This patch reuse gdp_mutex to fix this race condition.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 3.4, but
the latest kernel still has this bug.

This event closes an important gap in the bus notifiers.
There is already the BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE event, but that
is sent when the device is still bound to its device driver.

This is too early for the IOMMU code to destroy any mappings
for the device, as they might still be in use by the driver.

The new BUS_NOTIFY_REMOVED_DEVICE event introduced with this
patch closes this gap as it is sent when the device is
already unbound from its device driver and almost completly
removed from the driver core.

With this event the IOMMU code can safely destroy any
mappings and other data structures when a device is removed.

This reverts commit 401097ea.  The
original changelog said:

    A patch series to make .shutdown execute asynchronously.  Some drivers's
    shutdown can take a lot of time.  The patches can help save some shutdown
    time.  The patches use Arjan's async API.

    This patch:

    synchronize all tasks submitted by .shutdown

However, I'm not able to find any evidence that any other patches from
this series were applied, nor am I able to find any async tasks that are
scheduled in a .shutdown context.

On the other hand, we see occasional hangs on shutdown that appear to be
caused by the async_synchronize_full() in device_shutdown() waiting
forever for the async probing in sd if a SCSI disk shows up at just the
wrong time — the system starts the probe, but begins shutting down and
tears down too much of the SCSI driver to finish the probe.

If we had any async shutdown tasks, I guess the right fix would be to
create a "shutdown" async domain and have device_shutdown() only wait
for that domain.  But since there apparently are no async shutdown
tasks, we can just revert the waiting.

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.

This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.

The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.

This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.

This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.

Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
used to cater to more complex cases.

v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
    and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.

There's no reason for sysfs to be calling ktype->namespace().  It is
backwards, obfuscates what's going on and unnecessarily tangles two
separate layers.

There are two places where symlink code calls ktype->namespace().

* sysfs_do_create_link_sd() calls it to find out the namespace tag of
  the target directory.  Unless symlinking races with cross-namespace
  renaming, this equals @target_sd->s_ns.

* sysfs_rename_link() uses it to find out the new namespace to rename
  to and the new namespace can be different from the existing one.
  The function is renamed to sysfs_rename_link_ns() with an explicit
  @ns argument and the ktype->namespace() invocation is shifted to the
  device layer.

While this patch replaces ktype->namespace() invocation with the
recorded result in @target_sd, this shouldn't result in any behvior
difference.

The put_device(dev) at the bottom of the loop of device_shutdown
may result in the dev being cleaned up. In device_create_release,
the dev is kfreed.

However, device_shutdown attempts to use the dev pointer again after
put_device by referring to dev->parent.

Copy the parent pointer instead to avoid this condition.

This bug was found on Chromium OS's chromeos-3.8, which is based on v3.8.11.
See bug report : https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=297842
This can easily be reproduced when shutting down with
hidraw devices that report battery condition.
Two examples are the HP Bluetooth Mouse X4000b and the Apple Magic Mouse.
For example, with the magic mouse :
The dev in question is "hidraw0"
dev->parent is "magicmouse"

In the course of the shutdown for this device, the input event cleanup calls
a put on hidraw0, decrementing its reference count.
When we finally get to put_device(dev) in device_shutdown, kobject_cleanup
is called and device_create_release does kfree(dev).
dev->parent is no longer valid, and we may crash in
put_device(dev->parent).

This change should be applied on any kernel with this change :

device_hotplug_lock is held around the acpi_bus_trim() call in
acpi_scan_hot_remove() which generally removes devices (it removes
ACPI device objects at least, but it may also remove "physical"
device objects through .detach() callbacks of ACPI scan handlers).
Thus, potentially, device sysfs attributes are removed under that
lock and to remove those attributes it is necessary to hold the
s_active references of their directory entries for writing.

On the other hand, the execution of a .show() or .store() callback
from a sysfs attribute is carried out with that attribute's s_active
reference held for reading.  Consequently, if any device sysfs
attribute that may be removed from within acpi_scan_hot_remove()
through acpi_bus_trim() has a .store() or .show() callback which
acquires device_hotplug_lock, the execution of that callback may
deadlock with the removal of the attribute.  [Unfortunately, the
"online" device attribute of CPUs and memory blocks is one of them.]

To avoid such deadlocks, make all of the sysfs attribute callbacks
that need to lock device hotplug, for example store_online(), use
a special function, lock_device_hotplug_sysfs(), to lock device
hotplug and return the result of that function immediately if it is
not zero.  This will cause the s_active reference of the directory
entry in question to be released and the syscall to be restarted
if device_hotplug_lock cannot be acquired.

[show_online() actually doesn't need to lock device hotplug, but
it is useful to serialize it with respect to device_offline() and
device_online() for the same device (in case user space attempts to
run them concurrently) which can be done with the help of
device_lock().]

In some cases, graceful hot-removal of devices is not possible,
although in principle the devices in question support hotplug.
For example, that may happen for the last CPU in the system or
for memory modules holding kernel memory.

In those cases it is nice to be able to check if the given device
can be gracefully hot-removed before triggering a removal procedure
that cannot be aborted or reversed.  Unfortunately, however, the
kernel currently doesn't provide any support for that.

To address that deficiency, introduce support for offline and
online operations that can be performed on devices, respectively,
before a hot-removal and in case when it is necessary (or convenient)
to put a device back online after a successful offline (that has not
been followed by removal).  The idea is that the offline will fail
whenever the given device cannot be gracefully removed from the
system and it will not be allowed to use the device after a
successful offline (until a subsequent online) in analogy with the
existing CPU offline/online mechanism.

For now, the offline and online operations are introduced at the
bus type level, as that should be sufficient for the most urgent use
cases (CPUs and memory modules).  In the future, however, the
approach may be extended to cover some more complicated device
offline/online scenarios involving device drivers etc.

The lock_device_hotplug() and unlock_device_hotplug() functions are
introduced because subsequent patches need to put larger pieces of

Now that devtmpfs is caring about uid/gid, we need to use the correct
internal types so users who have USER_NS enabled will have things work
properly for them.

Thanks to Eric for pointing this out, and the patch review.

Some drivers want to tell userspace what uid and gid should be used for
their device nodes, so allow that information to percolate through the
driver core to userspace in order to make this happen.  This means that
some systems (i.e.  Android and friends) will not need to even run a
udev-like daemon for their device node manager and can just rely in
devtmpfs fully, reducing their footprint even more.

Whenever a struct device_attribute is registered
with mismatched permissions - read permission without
a show routine or write permission without store
routine - we will issue a big warning so we catch
those early enough.
