When a channel is being removed while an application holds the corresponding character device, this device is going to be destroyed only after the application closes the file descriptor and releases character device. In case the channel appears again before the application closes the file descriptor it holds, the channel cannot be linked. This patch changes the described behavior and destroys the character device at the time the channel get disconnected from the AIM.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
