      kobject: send KOBJ_REMOVE uevent when the object is removed from sysfs · 0e5596c5
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      
      
      It is possible for a KOBJ_REMOVE uevent to be sent to userspace way
      after the files are actually gone from sysfs, due to how reference
      counting for kobjects work.  This should not be a problem, but it would
      be good to properly send the information when things are going away, not
      at some later point in time in the future.
      
      Before this move, if a kobject's parent was torn down before the child,
      when the call to kobject_uevent() happened, the parent walk to try to
      reconstruct the full path of the kobject could be a total mess and cause
      crashes.  It's not good to try to tear down a kobject tree from top
      down, but let's at least try to not to crash if a user does so.

       "A set of EFI fixes:
      
         - Don't return a garbage screen info when EFI framebuffer is not
           available
      
         - Make the early EFI console work properly with wider fonts instead
           of drawing garbage
      
         - Prevent a memory buffer leak in allocate_e820()
      
         - Print the firmware error record properly so it can be decoded by
           users
      
         - Fix a symbol clash in the host tool build which only happens with
           newer compilers.
      
         - Add a missing check for the event log version of TPM which caused
           boot failures on several Dell systems due to an attempt to decode
           SHA-1 format with the crypto agile algorithm"

           The recent change not to skip the first frame so ORC and frame
           unwinder behave in the same way caused all entries to be
           unreliable, i.e. prepended with '?'.
      
         - Use cpumask_available() instead of an implicit NULL check of a
           cpumask_var_t in mmio trace to prevent a Clang build warning"

       "A set of fixes for the scheduler:
      
         - Fix handling of throttled parents in enqueue_task_fair() completely.
      
           The recent fix overlooked a corner case where the first iteration
           terminates due to an entity already being on the runqueue which
           makes the list management incomplete and later triggers the
           assertion which checks for completeness.
      
         - Fix a similar problem in unthrottle_cfs_rq().

           value twice instead of requested and effective"
