[PATCH 4/16][BUG] PCI slot: Add missing semaphore for slot release(Not for mainline!)

From: Kenji Kaneshige
Date: Fri Mar 21 2008 - 00:14:15 EST


Add missing pci_bus sem into pci_destroy_slot(). There is possible
race condition because current code doesn't have any serialization
in the destroy path.
