I misunderstood.  But I believe insertion and deletion is properly
serliaized.  It looks to me like the list structure is intact.  It's the
iterator that's been driven off into the weeds.

Just to be clear, the list we're talking about is "list" in "struct
kset"  And the nodes of the list are chained by "entry" in "struct
kobject".  I just want to make sure that this is what's intended before
I get too far down the road.

At a minimum the change looks something like the patch below.  This
doesn't work yet.  And I'll need extensive testing in device plug and
unplug.  So I'm not looking for a detailed review.  But if I'm obviously
way off base, I'd like to know earlier rather than later.

Thanks for the guidance.

Hugh
