[lustre-devel] [PATCH 06/37] lustre: obd_type: discard obd_types linked list.

[James Simmons]

> As all obd_types are kobjects in the lustre_kset kset,
> they are linked together in that kset and don't
> need any extra linkage.
> 
> As kset_find_obj() returns a counted reference, we need
> to put that reference when done.

This last part needs to be kobject_del(&type->typ_kobj); but that
will be handled in the early patch.
