H A Dzorro-sysfs.c7b595756 Wed Jun 13 13:45:17 CDT 2007 Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

H A Dlcd.c7b595756 Wed Jun 13 13:45:17 CDT 2007 Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.
