From a6a8357788d6a37f8ad0f7eb46b0a386b613abb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cornelia Huck Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2009 15:33:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs_move_dir(..., NULL) again. As device_move() and kobject_move() both handle a NULL destination, sysfs_move_dir() should do this as well (again) and fall back to sysfs_root in that case.
