From: Greg Kroah-Hartman on 21 May 2010 13:10 From: Hugh Daschbach <hdasch(a)broadcom.com> While device_shutdown() walks through devices_kset to shutdown all devices, device unplug events may race to shutdown individual devices. Specifically, sd_shutdown(), on behalf of fc_starget_delete(), has been observed deleting devices during device_shutdown()'s list traversal. So we factor out list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(...) in favor of while (!list_empty(...)).
