    kernfs: remove kernfs_addrm_cxt · 988cd7af
    Tejun Heo 提交于
    kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were
    added because there were operations which should be performed outside
    kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes.  The necessary
    operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
    kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
    relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
    directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
    performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
    too.
    
    This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
    and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().
    
    * kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex itself.
      sysfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from
      all users.
    
    * __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining
      it to kernfs_addrm_cxt.  Its callers are updated to grab and release
      kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around
      it.
    
    v2: Rebased on top of "kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its
        parent on creation" which dropped @parent from kernfs_add_one().
