Alan Stern e7b0d26a86 [PATCH] sysfs: reinstate exclusion between method calls and attribute unregistration
This patch (as869) reinstates the mutual exclusion between sysfs
attribute method calls and attribute unregistration.  The
previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is
by far the simplest way to avoid races during driver unbinding.

The check for orphaned read-buffers has been moved down slightly, so
that the remainder of a partially-read buffer will still be available
to userspace even after the attribute has been unregistered.
