Subject: Re: [PATCH 11/16] PCI slot: Remove useless release handler (Not
	for mainline!)

* Kenji Kaneshige <kaneshige.kenji@...fujitsu.com>:
> The release() handler of struct pci_slot never be called because
> pci_hp_deregister() calls pci_slot_destroy() after setting
> slot->release with NULL. So we don't need release() handler of struct
> pci_slot. In addition, we don't need pci_slot_add_hotplug().

Thanks, this was a good change. I've tested and merged it.

I did make two small changes though:

This prevents multiple hotplug drivers from claiming the same
slot.

The above is needed if pci_slot is loaded, and you wish to
repeatedly load/unload acpiphp/pciehp/other hp drivers.

Thanks,
