Subject[PATCH 0/2] ACPI / scan: Two fixes for device hot-removal
Date
Hi,

The following two patches fix issues I've found revently in the ACPI device
hot-removal code.

Patch [1/2] makes acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() hold acpi_scan_lock around the
whole removal procedure to prevent potential race condition between
acpi_bus_scan() and a conflicting evaluation of _EJ0 from happening.

Patch [2/2] makes acpi_device_unregister() put devices (supporting that) into
D3cold to prevent potential problems with removing power from them without
preparation from happening and removes the totally wrong evaluation of _PS3
from acpi_bus_hot_remove_device().

Thanks,
Rafael
