-/**
- * device_schedule_callback_owner - helper to schedule a callback for a device
- * @dev: device.
- * @func: callback function to invoke later.
- * @owner: module owning the callback routine
- *
- * Attribute methods must not unregister themselves or their parent device
- * (which would amount to the same thing). Attempts to do so will deadlock,
- * since unregistration is mutually exclusive with driver callbacks.
- *
- * Instead methods can call this routine, which will attempt to allocate
- * and schedule a workqueue request to call back @func with @dev as its
- * argument in the workqueue's process context. @dev will be pinned until
- * @func returns.
- *
- * This routine is usually called via the inline device_schedule_callback(),
- * which automatically sets @owner to THIS_MODULE.
- *
- * Returns 0 if the request was submitted, -ENOMEM if storage could not
- * be allocated, -ENODEV if a reference to @owner isn't available.
- *
- * NOTE: This routine won't work if CONFIG_SYSFS isn't set! It uses an
- * underlying sysfs routine (since it is intended for use by attribute
- * methods), and if sysfs isn't available you'll get nothing but -ENOSYS.
