[ Upstream commit c122383d221dfa2f41cfe5e672540595de986fde ]
Currently zpci_dev uses kref based reference counting but only accounts
for one original reference plus one reference from an added pci_dev to
its underlying zpci_dev. Counting just the original reference worked
until the pci_dev reference was added in commit 2a671f77ee49 ("s390/pci:
fix use after free of zpci_dev") because once a zpci_dev goes away, i.e.
enters the reserved state, it would immediately get released. However
with the pci_dev reference this is no longer the case and the zpci_dev
may still appear in multiple availability events indicating that it was
reserved. This was solved by detecting when the zpci_dev is already on
its way out but still hanging around. This has however shown some light
on how unusual our zpci_dev reference counting is.
Improve upon this by modelling zpci_dev reference counting on pci_dev.
Analogous to pci_get_slot() increment the reference count in
get_zdev_by_fid(). Thus all users of get_zdev_by_fid() must drop the
reference once they are done with the zpci_dev.
Similar to pci_scan_single_device(), zpci_create_device() returns the
device with an initial count of 1 and the device added to the zpci_list
(analogous to the PCI bus' device_list). In turn users of
zpci_create_device() must only drop the reference once the device is
gone from the point of view of the zPCI subsystem, it might still be
referenced by the common PCI subsystem though.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
