Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/eeh: Fix crash when adding a device in a slot with
 DDW

commit 6a040ce72598159a74969a2d01ab0ba5ee6536b3 upstream.

The DDW code uses a eeh_dev struct from the pci_dev. However, this is
not set until eeh_add_device_late is called.

Since pci_bus_add_devices is called before eeh_add_device_late, the PCI
devices are added to the bus, making drivers' probe hooks to be called.
These will call set_dma_mask, which will call the DDW code, which will
require the eeh_dev struct from pci_dev. This would result in a crash,
due to a NULL dereference.

Calling eeh_add_device_late after pci_bus_add_devices would make the
system BUG, because device files shouldn't be added to devices there
were not added to the system. So, a new function is needed to add such
files only after pci_bus_add_devices have been called.
