Once a virtuser device is instantiated and actively used, allowing rmdir for its configfs serves no purpose and can be confusing. Userspace interacts with the virtual consumer at arbitrary times, meaning it depends on its existance. Make the subsystem itself depend on the configfs entry for a virtuser device while it is in active use.
