kernel crash in bus_find_device

From: Francesco Ruggeri
Date: Tue May 13 2014 - 21:10:40 EST


While scanning devices on pci_bus_type I ran into the crash below.
The immediate cause of the crash is that bus_find_device is trying to resume
a scan starting from a device that has been unregistered (and whose knode_bus
has already been klist_del' ed).
The main issue seems to be that when resuming a scan the caller should
be holding a
reference to the klist_node, but instead it relies on holding a
reference to the device.
I played with a couple of narrow fixes, but a clean solution would
affect quite a bit of code.

Has anybody run into this before?

Thanks,
Francesco Ruggeri
