mainlining shenanigans
7008e58c63
There's a potential deadlock with the following cycle: wfs_lock --> device_links_lock --> kn->count Fix this by simply dropping the lock around a list_empty() check that's just exported to a sysfs file. The sysfs file output is an instantaneous check anyway and the lock doesn't really add any protection.

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.
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.
