Commit 704c4b0ddc03 ("cxlflash: Shutdown notify support for CXL Flash
cards") was recently introduced to notify the AFU when a system is going
down. Due to the position of the cxlflash driver in the device stack,
cxlflash devices are _always_ removed during a reboot/shutdown. This can
lead to a crash if the cxlflash shutdown hook is invoked _after_ the
shutdown hook for the owning virtual PHB. Furthermore, the current
implementation of shutdown/remove hooks for cxlflash are not tolerant to
being invoked when the device is not enabled. This can also lead to a
crash in situations where the remove hook is invoked after the device has
been removed via the vPHBs shutdown hook. An example of this scenario
would be an EEH reset failure while a reboot/shutdown is in progress.

To solve both problems, the shutdown hook for cxlflash is updated to
simply remove the device. This path already includes the AFU notification
and thus this solution will continue to perform the original intent. At
the same time, the remove hook is updated to protect against being
called when the device is not enabled.

cards")

You can get rid of the second parameter to notify_shutdown() now.

What's the justification for using cxlflash_remove() as the shutdown hook, rather than just not having a shutdown hook at all?
