3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Tyrel Datwyler <[email protected]> commit 7340056567e32b2c9d3554eb146e1977c93da116 upstream. Commit bcdde7e made __sysfs_remove_dir() recursive and introduced a BUG_ON during PHB removal while attempting to delete the power managment attribute group of the bus. This is a result of tearing the bridge and bus devices down out of order in remove_phb_dynamic. Since, the the bus resides below the bridge in the sysfs device tree it should be torn down first. This patch simply moves the device_unregister call for the PHB bridge device after the device_unregister call for the PHB bus.
