Subject: [PATCH] core: unset sysfs path after transition to dead state
dd65c9
dd65c9
Device is gone and most likely it will get garbage collected. However in
dd65c9
cases when it doesn't get gc'ed (because it is referenced by some
dd65c9
other unit, e.g. mount from fstab) we need to unset sysfs. This is
dd65c9
because when device appears next time, possibly, with different sysfs
dd65c9
path we need to update the sysfs path. Current code could end up caching
dd65c9
stale sysfs path forever.

In reality this is not a problem for normal disks (unless you swap them
dd65c9
during system runtime). However this issue causes failures to mount
dd65c9
filesystems on LVM where sysfs path depends on activation
dd65c9
order (i.e. logical volumes from volume group that is activated first
dd65c9
get assigned lower dm-X numbers and corresponding syspaths).
