Thanks!

As I said previously, I have found two concurrency-related bugs more in ACPIPHP
and I needed to put fixes for those bugs at the top of the series (after previous
[1-2/13] and the patch at https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3567701/).  For this
reason, I also had to rebase the ACPI/PCI hotplug consolidation patchset
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/2/87) which got a few additional cosmetic changes too.

The following is a combination of the two series with one patch dropped (it would
conflict with [4-5/24]) and a few patches added.  It is on top of 3.14-rc1.

Patches [1-5/24], that are regarded as 3.14-rc2 material, are on the bleeding-edge
branch of linux-pm.git.  The remaining patches will show up in bleeding-edge
shortly.

[1/24] Remove entries from bus->devices in reverse order (in ACPIPHP).
[2/24] Move PCI rescan-remove locking to hotplug_event().
[3/24] Scan root bus under the PCI rescan-remove lock
[4/24] Fix race in handle_hotplug_event() related to concurrent bridge removal.
[5/24] Fix race in hotplug_event() related to dock events and concurrent bridge removal.
[6/24] Drop dev_in_slot() and rework disable_slot() to walk bus->devices directly.
[7/24] Fix up two kerneldoc comments in acpiphp_glue.c.
[8/24] Get rid of an unnecessary label in register_slot().
[9/24] Drop acpiphp_bus_trim() and use acpi_bus_trim() instead of it directly.
[10/24] Move the acpi_bus_get_device() call out of acpiphp_no_hotplug().
[11/24] Store struct acpi_device pointers instead of ACPI handles in struct acpiphp_context.
[12/24] Drop acpiphp_bus_add() (which has only one user).
[13/24] Drop crit_sect mutexes (that are redundant).
[14/24] Clean up the usage of the slot variable in hotplug_event().
[15/24] Use acpi_handle_debug() in hotplug_event() instead of open-coded stuff.
[16/24] Do not pass ACPI handle to hotplug_event().
[17/24] Add a new function to ACPICA allowing a callback to be executed under the
        namespace mutex after calling acpi_ns_get_attached_data().
[18/24] Use the new ACPICA's function to fix a couple of potential races related
        to ACPI notifies.
[19/24] Move the hotplug context lock definition to the ACPI core (from ACPIPHP).
[20/24] Consolidate ACPI hotplug signaling for PCI and ACPI core.
[21/24] Rework the handling of eject requests in the ACPI core.
[22/24] Simplify a routine for installing hotplug notify handlers.
[23/24] Dispatch ACPI hotplug notifications for "core" devices and PCI from
        acpi_bus_notify().
[24/24] Pass struct acpi_device pointer to acpiphp_check_host_bridge().

Thanks!
