Linux kernel source tree
If a PCI device has an associated device_node with power supplies,
pci_bus_add_device() creates platform devices for use by pwrctrl. When the
PCI device is removed, pci_stop_dev() uses of_find_device_by_node() to
locate the related platform device, then unregisters it.
But when we remove a PCI device with no associated device node,
dev_of_node(dev) is NULL, and of_find_device_by_node(NULL) returns the
first device with "dev->of_node == NULL". The result is that we (a)
mistakenly unregister a completely unrelated platform device, leading to
issues like the first trace below, and (b) dereference the NULL pointer
from dev_of_node() when clearing OF_POPULATED, as in the second trace.
Unregister a platform device only if there is one associated with this PCI
device. This resolves issues seen when doing:
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../remove
Sample issue from unregistering the wrong platform device:

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 reStructuredText 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.
