[PATCH 02/46] sysfs: crash debugging

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>]

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

Print the name of the last-accessed sysfs file when we oops, to help track
down oopses which occur in sysfs store/read handlers.  Because these oopses
tend to not leave any trace of the offending code in the stack traces.
