PCI: Fix wrong reference counter check for proc_dir_entry
Fix wrong counter check for proc_dir_entry in pci_proc_detach_device(). The pci_proc_detach_device() returns with -EBUSY before calling remove_proc_entry() if the reference counter of proc_dir_entry is not 0. But this check is wrong and pci_proc_detach_device() always fails because the reference counter of proc_dir_entry is initialized with 1 at creating time and decremented in remove_proc_entry(). This bug cause strange behaviour as followings: - Accessing /proc/bus/pci/XXXX/YY file after hot-removing pci adapter card causes kernel panic. - Repeating hot-add/hot-remove of pci adapter card increases files with the same name under /proc/bus/pci/XXXX/ directory. For example: # pwd /proc/bus/pci/0002:09 # ls 01.0 # for i in `seq 5` > do > echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/slots/0009_0032/power > echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/slots/0009_0032/power > done # ls 01.0 01.0 01.0 01.0 01.0 01.0 The pci_proc_detach_device() should check if the reference counter is not larger than 1 instead.
