Subject: driver core: fix race with userland in device_add()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0cd75047de7f54d6fb4aba0ec5818f8194815a5a;p=linux-beck.git

driver core: fix race with userland in device_add()

bus_add_device() should be called before devtmpfs_create_node(), so when
userland application opens device from devtmpfs, it wouldn't get ENODEV
from kernel, because device_add() wasn't completed.
