I like it. I still think the bdi registration code should be in
charge of taking the extra reference on the disk device's parent to
isolate / make clear why the extra reference is being acquired, but I
won't lose sleep if Jens takes your smaller change.
Thanks James!
Bart, do you have a test configuration already set up for this case.
Can you give the 2 patches from James a try?

Hello Dan,
The "sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename" issue is something I ran
into sporadically before I started using my patch that fixes this issue.
I have not yet found a systematic way to trigger this behavior. Anyway,
I will drop my patch and will start testing James' two patches. It will
take a few days to test these patches thoroughly.
Bart.
