is equivalent to doing:

The objects that are registered with a subsystem that use the
subsystem's default list must have their kset ptr set properly. These
objects may have embedded kobjects or ksets. The
following helpers make setting the kset easier:
following helper makes setting the kset easier:


kobj_set_kset_s(obj,subsys)

- Assumes that obj->kobj exists, and is a struct kobject.
- Sets the kset of that kobject to the kset <subsys>.


kset_set_kset_s(obj,subsys)

- Assumes that obj->kset exists, and is a struct kset.
- Sets the kset of the embedded kobject to the kset <subsys>.

subsys_set_kset(obj,subsys)

- Assumes obj->subsys exists, and is a struct subsystem.
- Sets obj->subsys.kset.kobj.kset to the subsystem's embedded kset.

void subsystem_init(struct kset *s);
int subsystem_register(struct kset *s);
void subsystem_unregister(struct kset *s);
struct kset *subsys_get(struct kset *s);
void kset_put(struct kset *s);

These are just wrappers around the respective kset_* functions.
