sysfs: add sysfs_dirent->s_parent
Add sysfs_dirent->s_parent. With this patch, each sd points to and holds a reference to its parent. This allows walking sysfs tree without referencing sd->s_dentry which can go away anytime if the user doesn't control when it's deleted. sd->s_parent is initialized and parent is referenced in sysfs_attach_dirent(). Reference to parent is released when the sd is released, so as long as reference to a sd is held, s_parent can be followed. dentry walk in sysfs_readdir() is convereted to s_parent walk. This will be used to reimplement symlink such that it uses only sysfs_dirent tree. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
