19193bcad8dce (Waiman Long 2018-03-30 17:28:00 -0400 1252) theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
19193bcad8dce (Waiman Long 2018-03-30 17:28:00 -0400 1253) is), it will be proven so and will immediately be

19193bcad8dce (Waiman Long 2018-03-30 17:28:00 -0400 1257) If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
19193bcad8dce (Waiman Long 2018-03-30 17:28:00 -0400 1258) observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the

c817a67ecba7c (Russell King 2013-06-27 15:06:14 +0100 1575) However, some buggy drivers assume that after such an operation,
c817a67ecba7c (Russell King 2013-06-27 15:06:14 +0100 1576) the memory backing the kobject can be immediately freed. This
c817a67ecba7c (Russell King 2013-06-27 15:06:14 +0100 1577) goes completely against the principles of a refcounted object.
