    Bug report from: wenxiong@linux.vnet.ibm.com
    
    The issue is happened in dual controller configuration. We got the
    sysfs warnings when rmmod the ipr module.
    
    enclosure_unregister() in drivers/msic/enclosure.c, call device_unregister()
    for each componment deivce, device_unregister() ->device_del()->kobject_del()
    ->sysfs_remove_dir(). In sysfs_remove_dir(), set kobj->sd = NULL.
    
    For each componment device,
    enclosure_component_release()->enclosure_remove_links()->sysfs_remove_link()
    in which checking kobj->sd again, it has been set as NULL when doing
    device_unregister. So we saw all these sysfs WARNING.
