GFS2: Add kobject release method
This patch adds a kobject release function that properly maintains the kobject use count, so that accesses to the sysfs files do not cause an access to freed kernel memory after an unmount. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
