    ACPI / hotplug: Fix handle_root_bridge_removal() · 2441191a
    Rafael J. Wysocki authored
    It is required to do get_device() on the struct acpi_device in
    question before passing it to acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() through
    acpi_os_hotplug_execute(), because acpi_bus_hot_remove_device()
    calls acpi_scan_hot_remove() that does put_device() on that
    object.
    
    The ACPI PCI root removal routine, handle_root_bridge_removal(),
    doesn't do that, which may lead to premature freeing of the
    device object or to executing put_device() on an object that
    has been freed already.
    
    Fix this problem by making handle_root_bridge_removal() use
    get_device() as appropriate.
