    block: remove per-disk debugfs files in blk_unregister_queue · 99d055b4
    Christoph Hellwig authored
    The block debugfs files are created in blk_register_queue, which is
    called by add_disk and use a naming scheme based on the disk_name.
    After del_gendisk returns that name can be reused and thus we must not
    leave these debugfs files around, otherwise the kernel is unhappy
    and spews messages like:
    
    	Directory XXXXX with parent 'block' already present!
    
    and the newly created devices will not have working debugfs files.
    
    Move the unregistration to blk_unregister_queue instead (which matches
    the sysfs unregistration) to make sure the debugfs life time rules match
    those of the disk name.
    
    As part of the move also make sure the whole debugfs unregistration is
    inside a single debugfs_mutex critical section.
    
    Note that this breaks blktests block/002, which checks that the debugfs
    directory has not been removed while blktests is running, but that
    particular check should simply be removed from the test case.
