From: Andrey Shvetsov <andrey.shvetsov@xxxxxx> Currently, when the channel disappears whereas the character device is open by an application, the character device will be destroyed only after the application closes the character device. When the channel appears again before the application closes the channel, the channel cannot be linked to the character device with the same name. This patch changes the described behavior and destroys the character device by the disconnecting the channel from the AIM.
