Hi Bjorn, Hi Michael,

In my proposal to make pci_dev_is_added() more regularly usable by arch code
you mentioned[0] that you believe the uses in arch/powerpc are not necessary
anymore. From code reading I agree and so does Oliver O'Halloran[1].

So as promised here is a patch removing them. I only compile tested this as
I don't have access to a powerpc system.

I've also looked a bit more into our use in s390 and as dicussed previously
I don't think we can cleanly get rid of the existing one in
arch/s390/pci_sysfs.c:recover_store() because we need to distinguish an already
removed pdev just by looking at the pdev itself.

As for new uses I think in the upcoming automatic recovery code we can rely on
the fact that a removed device has pdev->driver == NULL and don't need
pci_dev_is_added() but it would make things clearer. I also noticed that before
commit 44bda4b7d26e9 ("PCI: Fix is_added/is_busmaster race condition") there
was simply a pdev->is_added flag that was cleanly accessible by arch code. So
I wanted to ask for your advice.

Thanks,
Niklas
