    powerpc/eeh: Fix race with driver un/bind · f0295e04

    The current EEH callbacks can race with a driver unbind. This can
    result in a backtraces like this:

    The first part is an EEH (on boot), the second half is the resulting
    crash. nvme probe starts the nvme_reset_work() worker thread. This
    worker thread starts touching the device which see a device error
    (EEH) and hence queues up an event in the powerpc EEH worker
    thread. nvme_reset_work() then continues and runs
    nvme_remove_dead_ctrl_work() which results in unbinding the driver
    from the device and hence releases all resources. At the same time,
    the EEH worker thread starts doing the EEH .error_detected() driver
    callback, which no longer works since the resources have been freed.
    
    This fixes the problem in the same way the generic PCIe AER code (in
    drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aerdrv_core.c) does. It makes the EEH code hold
    the device_lock() while performing the driver EEH callbacks and
    associated code. This ensures either the callbacks are no longer
    register, or if they are registered the driver will not be removed
    from underneath us.
    
    This has been broken forever. The EEH call backs were first introduced
    in 2005 (in 77bd7415) but it's not clear if a lock was needed back
    then.
