[PATCH] PCI: Fix racing for pci device removing via sysfs

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Thu Apr 25 2013 - 21:47:36 EST


Gu found nested removing through
echo -n 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:10\:00.0/remove ; echo -n 1 >
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:1a\:01.0/remove

will cause kernel crash as bus get freed.

We have one patch that will let device hold bus ref to prevent it from
being freed, but that will still generate warning.

We can just check if the device get removed from pci tree
already in the protection under pci_remove_rescan_mutex.
