    ACPI: bus: Ensure that notify handlers are not running after removal
    
    [ Upstream commit faae443738c6f0dac9b0d3d11d108f6911a989a9 ]
    
    Currently, acpi_device_remove_notify_handler() may return while the
    notify handler being removed is still running which may allow the
    module holding that handler to be torn down prematurely.
    
    Address this issue by making acpi_device_remove_notify_handler() wait
    for the handling of all the ACPI events in progress to complete before
    returning.
