[RFC PATCH v1 1/6] PCI: change PCI device management logic to betterfollow device model

From: Jiang Liu <liuj97@xxxxxxxxx>

According to device model documentation, the way to add/remove device
object should be symmetric.

/**
* device_del - delete device from system.
* @dev: device.
*
* This is the first part of the device unregistration
* sequence. This removes the device from the lists we control
* from here, has it removed from the other driver model
* subsystems it was added to in device_add(), and removes it
* from the kobject hierarchy.
*
* NOTE: this should be called manually _iff_ device_add() was
* also called manually.
*/

The rule here is to either use
1) device_register()/device_unregister()
or
2) device_initialize()/device_add()/device_del()/put_device().

So change PCI core to follow the rule and get rid of the redundant
pci_dev_get()/pci_dev_put() pair.
