[PATCH 15/24] sysfs: Kill sysfs_addrm_start and sysfs_addrm_finish

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Thu May 28 2009 - 19:06:34 EST


From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

With lazy inode updates and dentry operations bringing everything
into sync on demand there is no longer any need to immediately
update the vfs or grab i_mutex to protect those updates as we
make changes to sysfs.

So stop updating the vfs inodes and move what remains of
sysfs_addrm_start and sysfs_addrm_finsih (just barely more than taking
the sysfs_mutex) into sysfs_add_one and sysfs_remove_one.
