pci_walk_bus has a race with pci_destroy_dev. When cb is called
in pci_walk_bus, pci_destroy_dev might unlink the dev pointed by next.
Later on in the next loop, pointer next becomes NULL and cause
kernel panic.
Below patch against 2.6.17-rc4 fixes it by changing pci_bus_lock (spin_lock)
to pci_bus_sem (rw_semaphore).

This patch contains the following cleanups:
- hotplug/pciehp_core.c: make the needlessly global hpdriver_context
static
- #if 0 the following unused functions:
- pci.c: pci_bus_max_busnr()
- pci.c: pci_max_busnr()
- proc.c: pci_proc_attach_bus()
- remove.c: pci_remove_device_safe

When a root bridge hierarchy is hot-plugged, resource requirements for the new
devices may be greater than what the root bridge is decoding. In this case,
we want to remove devices that did not get needed resources. These devices
have been scanned into bus specific lists but not yet added to the global
device list. Make sure the pci remove functions can handle this case.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
