[PATCH 02/13] staging: gasket: sysfs: hold reference to device while in use

From: Todd Poynor
Date: Sun Jul 29 2018 - 15:38:09 EST


From: Todd Poynor <toddpoynor@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hold a reference to the struct device while a gasket sysfs mapping
exists for the device and a pointer to the struct is kept in the mapping
data structures.
