[Bug report] Warning when hot-add an ACPI0004 device.

Hi Rafael, Toshi,

When we hot-add an ACPI0004 device, we got the following warning:

acpi ACPI0004:01: Attempt to re-insert

The ACPI0004 device is a System Board in Fujitsu server, which has two
numa nodes (processors and memory).

It seems that we reserved the ACPI_NOTIFY_DEVICE_CHECK event twice in
acpi_hotplug_notify_cb().


According to bisect, this happens after the following commit:

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ACPI / container: Use common hotplug code

Switch the ACPI container driver to using common device hotplug code
introduced previously. This reduces the driver down to a trivial
definition and registration of a struct acpi_scan_handler object.

I'm now investigating this problem. If you have any idea about why this
happens, please let me know.

Thanks. :)
