PCI: Add global pci_lock_rescan_remove()
There are multiple PCI device addition and removal code paths that may be run concurrently with the generic PCI bus rescan and device removal that can be triggered via sysfs. If that happens, it may lead to multiple different, potentially dangerous race conditions. The most straightforward way to address those problems is to run the code in question under the same lock that is used by the generic rescan/remove code in pci-sysfs.c. To prepare for those changes, move the definition of the global PCI remove/rescan lock to probe.c and provide global wrappers, pci_lock_rescan_remove() and pci_unlock_rescan_remove(), allowing drivers to manipulate that lock. Also provide pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device_locked() for the callers of pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device() who only need to hold the rescan/remove lock around it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
