devtmpfs [censored] oddities

[Al Viro]

	May I respectfully suggest that a blocking operation (such as
kstrdup with GFP_KERNEL, or grabbing a mutex, or, say it, pathname resolution)
is not quite the thing to do while holding an rwlock?

	As it is, any device_add() is an embarrassingly obvious deadlock
waiting to happen...
