[PATCH v2 2/3] PCI Hotplug: acpiphp: grab refcount on p2p subordinatebus

From: Alex Chiang
Date: Mon Mar 30 2009 - 12:55:16 EST


If a logical hot unplug (remove) is performed on a bridge claimed
by acpiphp and then acpiphp is unloaded, we will encounter an oops.

This is because acpiphp will access the bridge's subordinate bus,
which was released by the user's prior hot unplug.

The solution is to grab a reference on the subordinate PCI bus.
This will prevent the bus from release until acpiphp is unloaded.
