commit8aac0e2338upstream. A multithreaded namespace creation/destruction stress test currently fails with signatures like the following: sysfs group 'power' not found for kobject 'dax1.1' RIP: 0010:sysfs_remove_group+0x76/0x80 Call Trace: device_del+0x73/0x370 device_unregister+0x16/0x50 nd_async_device_unregister+0x1e/0x30 [libnvdimm] async_run_entry_fn+0x39/0x160 process_one_work+0x23c/0x5e0 worker_thread+0x3c/0x390 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020 RIP: 0010:klist_put+0x1b/0x6c Call Trace: klist_del+0xe/0x10 device_del+0x8a/0x2c9 ? __switch_to_asm+0x34/0x70 ? __switch_to_asm+0x40/0x70 device_unregister+0x44/0x4f nd_async_device_unregister+0x22/0x2d [libnvdimm] async_run_entry_fn+0x47/0x15a process_one_work+0x1a2/0x2eb worker_thread+0x1b8/0x26e Use the kill_device() helper to atomically resolve the race of multiple threads issuing kill, device_unregister(), requests.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
