So instead of the above I'd prefer to apply the following change (added PCI and Bjorn for visibility): --- From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] PCI: hotplug: ACPI: Fix context refcounting in acpiphp_grab_context() If context is not NULL in acpiphp_grab_context(), but the is_going_away flag is set for the device's parent, the reference counter of the context needs to be decremented before returning NULL or the context will never be freed, so make that happen.
