From: Raghava Aditya Renukunta <raghavaaditya.renukunta@xxxxxxxx>
During EEH PCI hotplug activity kernel unloads and loads the driver,
causing character device to be unregistered(aac_remove_one).When the
driver is loaded back using aac_probe_one the character device needs
to be registered again for the AIF management tools to work.
Fixed by adding code to register character device in aac_probe_one if
it is unregistered in aac_remove_one.
Changes in V2:
Added macros to track character device state
Changes in V3:
None
Changes in V4:
None
