From fffe487d59ba4017c7c62b06667ca4a226cee651 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2007 08:00:24 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] pktcdvd: fix BUG caused by sysfs module reference semantics change pkt_setup_dev() expects module reference to be held on invocation. This used to be true for sysfs callbacks but not anymore. Test and grab module reference around pkt_setup_dev() in class_pktcdvd_store_add().
