After a rmmod thinkpad_acpi, lockdep pointed out this possible deadlock: Our _show and _store sysfs attr functions get called with the kn->active lock held for the sysfs attr and then take the profile_lock. sysfs_remove_group() also takes the kn->active lock for the sysfs attr, so if we call it with the profile_lock held, then we get an ABBA deadlock. platform_profile_remove() must only be called by drivers which have first *successfully* called platform_profile_register(). Anything else is a driver bug. So the check for cur_profile being set before calling sysfs_remove_group() is not necessary and it can be dropped. It is safe to call sysfs_remove_group() without holding the profile_lock since the attr-group group cannot be re-added until after we clear cur_profile. Change platform_profile_remove() to only hold the profile_lock while clearing the cur_profile, fixing the deadlock. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
