On closer inspection I think we'll need to have a deeper look at this.
This function isn't used for operations on the hotplug slot. Instead
it's used for DLPAR operations including adding / removing whole PHBs.
There doesn't appear to be any code in the DLPAR add / remove paths
which takes the PCI rescan / remove lock so I think we'll need to have
a careful look at what's going on there. Great stuff...
