Description Andrew Lukoshko 2012-11-14 12:29:30 MSK

Update for sysfsutils from RHEL6 upstream.

Advisory:
* Prior to this update, sysfs directories were not closed as expected. As a
consequence, the libsysfs library could leak memory in long running programs
that frequently opened and closed sysfs directories. This update modifies the
underlying code to close sysfs directories as expected.

Please DON'T PUBLISH, just test.
