  It is better not to directly access the internal members of the
kobject object, especially kobject_init_and_add() may failure.
BTW remove unnecessary kobject_del(), kobject_put() actually covers
kobject removal automatically, which is single stage removal.

Please at least Cc the proper people --- and write
the previous background to the commit message *again*.

I'd like to know the preferred way to do this since
the previous discussion is unfinished.

Also if you grep `state_in_sysfs`, actually there are
some similar in-tree usage, also device_is_registered() is
implemented like this:

static inline int device_is_registered(struct device *dev)
{
	return dev->kobj.state_in_sysfs;
}

Again, I'm not against this patch (I even prefer this one),
but you should Cc the proper people and finish the previous
topic first.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
