Looks like you have the same problem here. FYI, I just sent the following patch that exports acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() and acpi_os_hotplug_execute(). https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/1/225 Thanks, -Toshi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
