Hi,

It was with this patch queue on top of pci/linux-next
(487e348b0ff23e061f60010477a664ea378c1b30):

 PCIe: portdrv: call pci_disable_device during remove
 PCIe: AER: during disable, check subordinate before walking
 PCIe portdrv: eliminate double kfree in remove path
 PCI Hotplug: schedule fakephp for feature removal
 PCI Hotplug: rename legacy_fakephp to fakephp
 PCI Hotplug: restore fakephp interface with complete reimplementation
 PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../rescan
 PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../remove (new version)
 PCI: Introduce /sys/bus/pci/rescan
 PCI: beef up pci_do_scan_bus()
 PCI: always scan child buses
 PCI: pci_scan_slot() returns newly found devices
 PCI: don't scan existing devices
 PCI: pci_is_root_bus helper

It reproduces reliably if I do this:

$ while true; do echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:00.0/remove; done

Line numbers:

$ addr2line -e vmlinux -i ffffffff811fce96
include/linux/list.h:92
include/linux/list.h:105
drivers/pci/remove.c:40
drivers/pci/remove.c:106

And this is my drivers/pci/remove.c:

 33 static void pci_destroy_dev(struct pci_dev *dev)
 34 {
 35         pci_stop_dev(dev);
 36
 37         /* Remove the device from the device lists, and prevent any further
 38          * list accesses from this device */
 39         down_write(&pci_bus_sem);
 40         list_del(&dev->bus_list);
 41         dev->bus_list.next = dev->bus_list.prev = NULL;
 42         up_write(&pci_bus_sem);
 43
 44         pci_free_resources(dev);
 45         pci_dev_put(dev);
 46 }
