SubjectRe: [PATCH] pci-sysfs: replace mutex_lock with mutex_trylock to avoid potential deadlock situation
Hi all,
I have worked out a draft patch set to serialize hotplug operations,
but encountered some obstacles when dealing with PCI root buses. I will
try to rebase the patch set onto "PCI: Iterate pci host bridge instead of
pci root bus" from Yinghai. And also need to fix bugs reported by Lin Feng
too.

Regards!
Gerry
