[PATCH 1/5] sysfs: fix locking in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_rename_dir()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Aug 22 2007 - 18:21:56 EST


From: Tejun Heo <htejun@xxxxxxxxx>

sd children list walking in sysfs_lookup() and sd renaming in
sysfs_rename_dir() were left out during i_mutex -> sysfs_mutex
conversion. Fix them.
