[PATCH 9/22] ppc64: DLPAR slot add and remove bugfixes

09-crash-on-pci-slot-remove.patch

This patch fixes two bugs related to dlpar slot removal and add.

-- Both crashes are due to the fact the some children
of pci nodes are not pci nodes themselves, and thus do not
have pci_dn structures. For example:
/pci@800000020000002/pci@2,3/usb@1/hub@1
/pci@800000020000002/pci@2,3/usb@1,1/hub@1

Strangely, though, sometimes the following appears,
and I don't quite understand why.
/interrupt-controller@3fe0000a400

A typical stack trace:
Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000000555637d0]
pc: c000000000202a50: .dlpar_add_slot+0x108/0x410
c000000000202e78 .add_slot_store+0x7c/0xac
c000000000202da0 .dlpar_attr_store+0x48/0x64
c0000000000f8ee4 .sysfs_write_file+0x100/0x1a0

A similar stack trace is involved for the slot remove.

This code survived testing, of adding and removing different slots,
23 times each, so far, as of this writing.
