3.5.7u1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gavin Shan <shangw at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit feadf7c0a1a7c08c74bebb4a13b755f8c40e3bbc upstream.

The EEH core is talking with the PCI device driver to determine the
action (purely reset, or PCI device removal). During the period, the
driver might be unloaded and in turn causes kernel crash as follows:

EEH: Detected PCI bus error on PHB#4-PE#10000
EEH: This PCI device has failed 3 times in the last hour
lpfc 0004:01:00.0: 0:2710 PCI channel disable preparing for reset

The patch increases the reference of the corresponding driver modules
while EEH core does the negotiation with PCI device driver so that the
corresponding driver modules can't be unloaded during the period and
we're safe to refer the callbacks.
