Move the deletion of sysfs attributes from reconfig_mutex to open_mutex didn't really help as a process can try to take open_mutex while holding reconfig_mutex, so the same deadlock can happen, just requiring one more process to be involved in the chain. I looks like I cannot easily use locking to wait for the sysfs deletion to complete, so don't. The only things that we cannot do while the deletions are still pending is other things which can change the sysfs namespace: run, takeover, stop. Each of these can fail with -EBUSY. So set a flag while doing a sysfs deletion, and fail run, takeover, stop if that flag is set. This is suitable for 2.6.35.x Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NNeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
