Therefore, it should be removed. It's one of those messages that mean very little to you, unless you have an understanding of how hotplug is supposed to work.

Thanks a lot for looking into these issues, I'll be back with a status message when I've tried the new board. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
