[PATCH 06/13] sysfs: Fix locking and factor out sysfs_sd_setattr

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Tue Nov 03 2009 - 06:58:33 EST


From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Cleanly separate the work that is specific to setting the
attributes of a sysfs_dirent from what is needed to update
the attributes of a vfs inode.

Additionally grab the sysfs_mutex to keep any nasties from
surprising us when updating the sysfs_dirent.
