The refresh of HD-audio widget sysfs kobjects via snd_hdac_refresh_widget_sysfs() is slightly racy. The driver recreates the whole tree from scratch after deleting the whole. When CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE option is used, kobject release doesn't happen immediately but delayed, while the re-creation of the same named kobject happens soon after invoking kobject_put(). This may end up with the conflicts of duplicated kobjects, as found in the bug report below. In this patch, we take another approach to refresh the tree: instead of recreating the whole tree, just add the new nodes and delete the non-existing nodes. Since the refresh happens only once at initialization, no longer race would happen. Along with the code change, merge snd_hdac_refresh_widget_sysfs() with the existing snd_hdac_refresh_widgets() with an additional bool flag for simplifying the code.

README
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.
