Pointer sbufs is being assigned a value but it's not being used later
on.  The pointer is redundant and can be removed.  Cleans up scan-build
static analysis warning:

  fs/nilfs2/page.c:203:8: warning: Although the value stored to 'sbufs'
    is used in the enclosing expression, the value is never actually read
    from 'sbufs' [deadcode.DeadStores]

<title>nilfs2: use default_groups in kobj_type</title>

<id>a6b9a6149d850ab94acc4db9473f124a062be322</id>
<content type='text'>
There are currently 2 ways to create a set of sysfs files for a
kobj_type, through the default_attrs field, and the default_groups
field.  Move the nilfs2 code to use default_groups field which has been
the preferred way since aa30f47cf666 ("kobject: Add support for default
attribute groups to kobj_type") so that we can soon get rid of the
obsolete default_attrs field.

<content type='text'>
Patch series "nilfs2 updates".

This patch (of 2):

coccicheck complains about the use of snprintf() in sysfs show functions.

Fix the coccicheck warning:

  WARNING: use scnprintf or sprintf.

Use sysfs_emit instead of scnprintf or sprintf makes more sense.

When the refcount is decreased to 0, the resource reclamation branch is
entered.  Before CPU0 reaches the race point (1), CPU1 may obtain the
spinlock and traverse the rbtree to find 'root', see
nilfs_lookup_root().

Although CPU1 will call refcount_inc() to increase the refcount, it is
obviously too late.  CPU0 will release 'root' directly, CPU1 then
accesses 'root' and triggers UAF.

Use refcount_dec_and_lock() to ensure that both the operations of
decrease refcount to 0 and link deletion are lock protected eliminates
this risk.

kobject_put() should be used to cleanup the memory associated with the
kobject instead of kobject_del().  See the section "Kobject removal" of
"Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst".
