When removing a bridge, pciehp_unconfigure_device() reads the PCI_BRIDGE_CONTROL byte. If this is a surprise hot-unplug, the device is already gone and the read returns ~0, which pciehp_unconfigure_device() interprets as having PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA set. This results in failure of the remove operation: pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie004: Slot(0): Link Down pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie004: Slot(0): Card present pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie004: Cannot remove display device 0000:01:00.0 Because of this the hierarchy is left untouched preventing further hotplug operations. Now, it is not clear why the check is there in the first place and why we would like to prevent removing a bridge if it has PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA set. In case of PCIe surprise hot-unplug, it would not even be possible to prevent the removal. Given this and the issue described above, I think it makes sense to drop the whole PCI_BRIDGE_CONTROL check from pciehp_unconfigure_device(). While there do the same for shpchp_configure_device() based on the same reasoning and the fact that the same bug might trigger in standard PCI hotplug as well.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
