[PATCH] PCI: fix race with pci_walk_bus and pci_destroy_dev
pci_walk_bus has a race with pci_destroy_dev. When cb is called
in pci_walk_bus, pci_destroy_dev might unlink the dev pointed by next.
Later on in the next loop, pointer next becomes NULL and cause
kernel panic.
Below patch against 2.6.17-rc4 fixes it by changing pci_bus_lock (spin_lock)
to pci_bus_sem (rw_semaphore).
