ProcFs: FORCING remove_proc_entry even if the directory is used (busy) ??

[Jean-Guillaume]

Hi all,

   I have a program that automaticaly recreate a directory in /proc, 
based on some events. To do this, I do a remove_proc_entry, and then 
recreate the directory.

   However, if someone is using a console and is currently IN my /proc 
directory, remove_proc_entry fails, saying that the dir is "busy".

   Any way to force the deletion? Or any ideas for workarounds?


   Many thanks

      Jena-Guillaume
