When we hot-remove a device, usually the host sends us a PCI_EJECT message,
and a PCI_BUS_RELATIONS message with bus_rel->device_count == 0.

When we execute the quick hot-add/hot-remove test, the host may not send
us the PCI_EJECT message if the guest has not fully finished the
initialization by sending the PCI_RESOURCES_ASSIGNED* message to the
host, so it's potentially unsafe to only depend on the
pci_destroy_slot() in hv_eject_device_work() because the code path

create_root_hv_pci_bus()
 -> hv_pci_assign_slots()

is not called in this case. Note: in this case, the host still sends the
guest a PCI_BUS_RELATIONS message with bus_rel->device_count == 0.

In the quick hot-add/hot-remove test, we can have such a race before
the code path

pci_devices_present_work()
 -> new_pcichild_device()

adds the new device into the hbus->children list, we may have already
received the PCI_EJECT message, and since the tasklet handler

hv_pci_o...
