    pci/hotplug/pnv_php: Fix hotplug driver crash on Powernv
    
    [ Upstream commit 335e35b748527f0c06ded9eebb65387f60647fda ]
    
    The hotplug driver for powerpc (pci/hotplug/pnv_php.c) causes a kernel
    crash when we try to hot-unplug/disable the PCIe switch/bridge from
    the PHB.
    
    The crash occurs because although the MSI data structure has been
    released during disable/hot-unplug path and it has been assigned
    with NULL, still during unregistration the code was again trying to
    explicitly disable the MSI which causes the NULL pointer dereference and
    kernel crash.
    
    The patch fixes the check during unregistration path to prevent invoking
    pci_disable_msi/msix() since its data structure is already freed.
