[ Upstream commit 495000a38634e640e2fd02f7e4f1512ccc92d770 ]
The card-specific debugfs entries are removed at the last stage of
card free phase, and it's performed after synchronization of the
closes of all opened fds. This works fine for most cases, but it can
be potentially problematic for a hotplug device like USB-audio. Due
to the nature of snd_card_free_when_closed(), the card free isn't
called immediately after the driver removal for a hotplug device, but
it's left until the last fd is closed. It implies that the card
debugfs entries also remain. Meanwhile, when a new device is inserted
before the last close and the very same card slot is assigned, the
driver tries to create the card debugfs root again on the very same
path. This conflicts with the remaining entry, and results in the
kernel warning such as:
debugfs: Directory 'card0' with parent 'sound' already present!
with the missing debugfs entry afterwards.
For avoiding such conflicts, remove debugfs entries at the device
disconnection phase instead. The jack kctl debugfs entries get
removed in snd_jack_dev_disconnect() instead of each kctl
private_free.

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.
