Hi, Benjamin
From: Benjamin Tissoires [mailto:benjamin.tissoires@redhat.com]
Subject: [PATCH v2] ACPI / button: remove pointer to old lid_sysfs on
unbind

When we removed the procfs dir on error or if the driver is
unbound, the two variables acpi_lid_dir and acpi_button_dir
were not reset. On the next rebind, those static variables
were not null and we couldn't re-register the device again.

Looks good.
