Subject: [9/9] [RFC] Steps to fixing the driver model locking


[email protected], 2005-03-21 12:25:36-08:00, [email protected]
[driver core] Add a klist to struct device_driver for the devices bound to it.

- Use it in driver_for_each_device() instead of the regular list_head and stop using
the bus's rwsem for protection.
- Use driver_for_each_device() in driver_detach() so we don't deadlock on the
bus's rwsem.
- Remove ->devices.
- Move klist access and sysfs link access out from under device's semaphore, since
they're synchronized through other means.
