After some investigation, it seems the reason is: The mod->mkobj.kobj(ffffffffa01600d0 below) is freed together with mod itself by module_free(mod, mod->module_core) in free_module(). However, its children still hold references to it, as the delay caused by DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE. So when the child('holders' below) tries to decrease the reference count to its parent in kobject_del(), BUG happens as it tries to access already freed memory. v2: Greg suggested to make the kobject as a pointer. But it seems a little hard to make kobj(kobject) embedded in mkobj(module_kobject) a pointer, as that seems to cause getting the mkobj from the kobj impossible -- to_module_kobject() is used in several places to derive mkobj from its member kobj. So in this version, I made the whole mkobj(module_kobject) as a pointer in mod(module). The mkobj is then allocated in mod_sysfs_init(), and freed in its member kobj's release function -- it seems that there is no mkobj usage after its kobj is released?
