Hi Yinghai,

You said the following in another patch:
"[PATCH 27/40] ACPI: acpi_bus_trim to support two steps."

Is it just container and pci_root_bridge hot-remove need to call
acpi_bus_trim() twice ? For normal device without sub-device, I think
it is OK to call acpi_bus_trim(device, 1).

The reason why I'm asking this question is:

I saw in acpi_bus_hot_remove_device(), it almost does the same things
you did in handle_root_bridge_removal(), except calling acpi_bus_trim()
twice. And there are more than one path could do container hot-remove.

If I add a container_device_remove() doing the similar things, it could
be duplicated. So, shall we just remove handle_root_bridge_removal(),
and only use acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() ?

Of course, we need to call acpi_bus_trim() twice in
acpi_bus_hot_remove_device().

Thanks. :)
