If you check the implementation of pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(), all it
does is to go over the list of sub-devices and bus device, and then do pci_stop_dev() and 
pci_destroy_dev() operations. My point is, once the device is stopped or removed then
in other thread which executes pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(), the same device will
not be present. And hence we are not repeating the core operation. Ofcourse there are
still some duplication (like DLLSC/PDC event handling). But I am not trying to solve
that problem here.

I am just making error recovery handler own this functionality to solve,

1. recovery problem of non-hotplug capapble devices.
2. remove dependency on hotplug handler for handline remove and rescan functionality.
3. Make pcie_do_recovery() less complex.
