Subject: [PATCH 4.14 087/100] driver core: Move device_links_purge() after bus_remove_device()

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jeffy Chen <jeffy.chen@...k-chips.com>

commit 2ec16150179888b81717d1d3ce84e634f4736af2 upstream.

The current ordering of code in device_del() triggers a WARN_ON()
in device_links_purge(), because of an unexpected link status.

The device_links_unbind_consumers() call in device_release_driver()
has to take place before device_links_purge() for the status of all
links to be correct, so move the device_links_purge() call in
device_del() after the invocation of bus_remove_device() which calls
device_release_driver().
