Blob Blame History Raw

Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc6
Subject: vmbus: unregister device_obj->channels_kset
Git-commit: 869b5567e12f63ea7407f81728ca87f8c0abbfdb
References: fate#323887

Without the patch, a device can't be thoroughly destroyed, because
vmbus_device_register() -> kset_create_and_add() still holds a reference
to the hv_device's device.kobj.
