[PATCH 1/2] ACPI / hotplug / PCI: Avoid doing too much for spurious notifies

From: Rafael J. Wysocki

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Sometimes we may get a spurious device check or bus check notify for
a hotplug device and in those cases we should avoid doing all of the
configuration work needed when something actually changes. To that
end, check the return value of pci_scan_slot() in enable_slot() and
bail out early if it is 0.

This turns out to help reduce the amount of diagnostic output from
the ACPIPHP subsystem and speed up boot on at least one system that
generates multiple device check notifies for PCIe ports during
boot.
