They will be posted separately later this week.
I've learned a couple of things since I sent this patchset. First, all bus->devices list walks that may remove PCI devices should be done in reverse order or they can crash if virtual functions are involved. Second, hotplug_event() (in acpiphp_glue.c) has to acquire pci_rescan_remove_lock by itself, because it may be called from multiple places and all of them need that lock to be held. That is done by patches [1-2/13] which I'm planning to push as fixes for 3.14-rc2. The rest is pretty much the same as last time except that the old patch [9/11] became [3/13] in this series and it has been changed so that the list is walked in reverse order.
