This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled gpio: sysfs: fix gpio device-attribute leak to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt6. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From ed8bf4aeaf580a3e43bf321fbe2627439f8fa114 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org> Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2015 13:00:05 +0100 Subject: gpio: sysfs: fix gpio device-attribute leak commit 0915e6feb38de8d3601819992a5bd050201a56fa upstream. The gpio device attributes were never destroyed when the gpio was unexported (or on export failures). Use device_create_with_groups() to create the default device attributes of the gpio class device. Note that this also fixes the attribute-creation race with userspace for these attributes. Remove contingent attributes in export error path and on unexport.
