[ Upstream commit af54d778a03853801d681c98c0c2a6c316ef9ca7 ]
dev_coredumpm() creates a devcoredump device and adds it
to the core kernel framework which eventually end up
sending uevent to the user space and later creates a
symbolic link to the failed device. An application
running in userspace may be interested in this symbolic
link to get the name of the failed device.
In a issue scenario, once uevent sent to the user space
it start reading '/sys/class/devcoredump/devcdX/failing_device'
to get the actual name of the device which might not been
created and it is in its path of creation.
To fix this, suppress sending uevent till the failing device
symbolic link gets created and send uevent once symbolic
link is created successfully.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
