Similar to commit 9e07f4e24379 ("zram: close udev startup race condition as default groups"), this is a merge of [1, 2], since [1] may be too large size to be merged into -stable tree.
Why is it too big?
This issue has been introduced since v2.6.36 by [3].
[1] fef912bf860e, block: genhd: add 'groups' argument to device_add_disk [2] e982c4d0a29b, virtio-blk: modernize sysfs attribute creation [3] a5eb9e4ff18a, virtio_blk: Add 'serial' attribute to virtio-blk devices (v2)
What userspace tools are now hitting this issue? If it's a real problem, let's take the real commits, right?
Same for the other patches in this series.
thanks,
