From ae2108ad32f5ca55e9895d5597e6552be1607569 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2013 17:21:47 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: make __sysfs_add_one() fail if the parent isn't a directory Currently the kobject based interface guarantees that a parent sysfs_dirent is always a directory; however, the planned kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirents and the caller may specify non-directory node as the parent. Add an explicit check in __sysfs_add_one() so that such attempts fail with -EINVAL. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- Reading git-format-patch failed
