ACPI / scan: Make acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() acquire the scan lock
The ACPI scan lock has been introduced to prevent acpi_bus_scan()
and acpi_bus_trim() from running in parallel with each other for
overlapping ACPI namespace scopes. However, it is not sufficient
to do that, because if acpi_bus_scan() is run (for an overlapping
namespace scope) right after the acpi_bus_trim() in
acpi_bus_hot_remove_device(), the subsequent eject will remove
devices without removing the corresponding struct acpi_device
objects (and possibly companion "physical" device objects).
Therefore acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() has to acquire the scan
lock before carrying out the bus trimming and hold it through
the evaluation of _EJ0, so make that happen.
