Subject[PATCH] vfio: fix crash on rmmod
Date
devtmpfs_delete_node() calls devnode() callback with mode==NULL but
vfio still tries to write there.

The patch fixes this.

Signed-off-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>

Steps to reproduce on freshly booted system with no devices given to VFIO:
modprobe vfio
rmmod vfio_iommu_spapr_tce
rmmod vfio
