Hello.
Though I posted the following patch a week ago,
there is no objection, and Kame-san reviewed it.
I hope merge it by someone if possible.
(I don't find maintainer's name for procfs.)

I changed the return value to ENOENT.
This return value is then returned when opening the proc entry
that have been removed.
For example, open("/proc/bus/pci/XX/YY") during the corresponding
device is being hot-removed.
