![]() This patch fixes a bug where configfs_register_group had added a group in a tree, and userspace has done a rmdir on a dir somewhere above that group and we hit a kernel crash. The problem is configfs_rmdir will detach everything under it and unlink groups on the default_groups list. It will not unlink groups added with configfs_register_group so when configfs_unregister_group is called to drop its references to the group/items we crash when we try to access the freed dentrys. The patch just adds a check for if a rmdir has been done above us and if so just does the unlink part of unregistration. Sorry if you are getting this multiple times. I thouhgt I sent this to some of you and lkml, but I do not see it.
