I agree. This must have slipped in during the countless iterations.
Thanks for catching it.

qemuDomainDetachControllerDevice() calls
qemuDomainDetachExtensionDevice() when the *controller* type is
PCI. This is incorrect in multiple ways:

* Any code that tears down a device should be in the
   qemuDomainRemove*Device() function (which is called after libvirt
   gets a DEVICE_DELETED event from qemu indicating that the guest is
   finished with the device on its end. The qemuDomainDetach*Device()
   functions should only contain code that ensures the requested
   operation is valid, and sends the command to qemu to initiate the
   unplug.

* qemuDomainDetachExtensionDevice() is a function that applies to
   devices that plug into a PCI slot, *not* necessarily PCI controllers
   (which is what's being checked in the offending code). The proper
   way to check for this would be to see if the DeviceInfo for the
   controller device had a PCI address, not to check if the controller
   is a PCI controller (the code being removed was doing the latter).

* According to commit 1d1e264f1 that added this code (and other
   support for hotplugging zPCI devices on s390), it's not necessary to
   explicitly detach the zPCI device when unplugging a PCI device. To
   quote:

        There's no need to implement hot unplug for zPCI as QEMU
        implements an unplug callback which will unplug both PCI and
        zPCI device in a cascaded way.

   and the evidence bears this out - all the other uses of
   qemuDomainDetachExtensionDevice() (except one, which I believe is
   also in error, and is being removed in a separate patch) are only to
   remove the zPCI extension device in cases where it was successfully
   added, but there was some other failure later in the hotplug process
   (so there was no regular PCI device to remove and trigger removal of
   the zPCI extension device).

* PCI controllers are not hot pluggable, so this is dead code
   anyway. (The only controllers that can currently be
   hotplugged/unplugged are SCSI controllers).
