  vfio/mdev: Synchronize device create/remove with parent removal (2019-06-06 12:32:37 -0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
VFIO fixes for v5.2-rc5

 - Fix mdev device create/remove paths to provide initialized device for
   parent driver create callback and correct ordering of device removal
   from bus prior to initiating removal by parent.  Also resolve races
   between parent removal and device create/remove paths. (Parav Pandit)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Parav Pandit (3):
      vfio/mdev: Improve the create/remove sequence
      vfio/mdev: Avoid creating sysfs remove file on stale device removal
      vfio/mdev: Synchronize device create/remove with parent removal
