[PATCH] PCI: fix race with pci_walk_bus and pci_destroy_dev
pci_walk_bus has a race with pci_destroy_dev. When cb is called in pci_walk_bus, pci_destroy_dev might unlink the dev pointed by next. Later on in the next loop, pointer next becomes NULL and cause kernel panic. Below patch against 2.6.17-rc4 fixes it by changing pci_bus_lock (spin_lock) to pci_bus_sem (rw_semaphore).
