[PATCH] ipr: Fix a race on multiple configuration changes

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza <klebers@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

In a multiple configuration change scenario a remove notification can be
followed by an immediate add notification for the same device, which
will cause the device to be removed but never added back. This patch
fixes the problem by ensuring that in such situations the device will be
added back.
