Revision d9a9cdfb078d755e648d53ec25b7370f84ee5729 authored by Alan Stern on 15 March 2007, 19:50:34 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 15 March 2007, 22:29:26 UTC 
[PATCH] sysfs and driver core: add callback helper, used by SCSI and S390
 
This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need
to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's
context.  This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to
unregister themselves or their parent device.  Attribute method calls
are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be
taken directly.

Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one
for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.
