The following test case leads to NULL kobject free error:
mount seed /mnt
add sprout to /mnt
umount /mnt
mount sprout to /mnt
delete seed
kobject: '(null)' (00000000dd2b87e4): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.

This is because, at the end of the seed device-delete, we try to remove
the seed's devid sysfs entry. But for the seed devices under the sprout
fs, we don't initialize the devid kobject yet. So add a kobject state
check, which takes care of the bug.
Fixes: 668e48af7a94 ("btrfs: sysfs, add devid/dev_state kobject and device attributes")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
