You also have to wait for the already running operations to finish, before you can allow the module to unload.
These things run under dev_base_lock, so either they find the device or they don't, and since they hold a spinlock they can't preempt. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
