[PATCH 4.2 049/134] powerpc/eeh: Probe after unbalanced kref check

From: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net>

commit e642d11bdbfe8eb10116ab3959a2b5d75efda832 upstream.

In the complete hotplug case, EEH PEs are supposed to be released
and set to NULL. Normally, this is done by eeh_remove_device(),
which is called from pcibios_release_device().

However, if something is holding a kref to the device, it will not
be released, and the PE will remain. eeh_add_device_late() has
a check for this which will explictly destroy the PE in this case.

This check in eeh_add_device_late() occurs after a call to
eeh_ops->probe(). On PowerNV, probe is a pointer to pnv_eeh_probe(),
which will exit without probing if there is an existing PE.

This means that on PowerNV, devices with outstanding krefs will not
be rediscovered by EEH correctly after a complete hotplug. This is
affecting CXL (CAPI) devices in the field.

Put the probe after the kref check so that the PE is destroyed
and affected devices are correctly rediscovered by EEH.
