[PATCH] PCI: Remove redudant calls to pci_create_sysfs_dev_files() and pci_proc_attach_device()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Both pci_create_sysfs_dev_files() and pci_proc_attach_device() are called
from pci_bus_add_device(). Calling these APIs from other places is prone to
a race condition as nothing prevents the callers from racing against
each other.

Moreover, the proper place to create SYSFS and PROCFS entries is during
the 'pci_dev' creation. So there is no real need to call these APIs
elsewhere.

Hence, remove the calls from pci_sysfs_init() and pci_proc_init().
