Hi, back to this after a long context switch for some higher priority stuff.
So here I was able eventually to drop all this code and this change here https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https:%2F%2Fcgit.freedesktop.org%2F~agrodzov%2Flinux%2Fcommit%2F%3Fh%3Damd-staging-drm-next-device-unplug%26id%3D61852c8a59b4dd89d637693552c73175b9f2ccd6&data=04%7C01%7CAndrey.Grodzovsky%40amd.com%7C7ae9e5798c7648d6dbb908d885a22c58%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C637406278875513811%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=aoFIsBxpLC9tBZw3E%2B8IJlNqFSq6uRgEvvciaZ6B1iw%3D&reserved=0
was enough for me. Seems like while device_remove_file can handle the use
case where the file and the parent directory already gone,
sysfs_remove_group goes down in flames in that case
due to kobj->sd being unset on device removal.
A driver shouldn't ever have to remove individual sysfs groups, the
driver core/bus logic should do it for them automatically.
And whenever a driver calls a sysfs_* call, that's a hint that something
is not working properly.
Do you mean that while the driver creates the groups and files explicitly from
it's different
subsystems it should not explicitly remove each one of them because all of them
should
be removed at once (and recursively) when the device is being removed ?

Also, run your patch above through checkpatch.pl before submitting it :)
thanks,
