From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> According to the changelog of commit 29ed1f29b68a (PCI: pciehp: Fix null pointer deref when hot-removing SR-IOV device) it is unsafe to walk the bus->devices list of a PCI bus and remove devices from it in direct order, because that may lead to NULL pointer dereferences related to virtual functions. For this reason, change all of the bus->devices list walks in acpiphp_glue.c during which devices may be removed to be carried out in reverse order. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
