PCI: Avoid PCI device removing/rescanning through sysfs triggers a de…

…adlock

This patch fixes deadlock warning in removing/rescanning through sysfs
when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled.

The issue can be reproduced by these steps:
1. Enable CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING via defconfig or menuconfig
2. Insert Ethernet card into PCIe CH0 and start up.
   After kernel starting up, execute the following command.
   echo 1 > /sys/class/pci_bus/0000\:00/device/0000\:00\:00.0/remove
3. Rescan PCI device by this command
   echo 1 > /sys/class/pci_bus/0000\:00/bus_rescan

The deadlock warnings will occur.

This warning occurs due to a self-deletion attribute using in the sysfs
PCI device directory. This kind of attribute is really tricky,
it does not allow pci framework drop this attribute until all active
.show() and .store() callbacks have finished unless
sysfs_break_active_protection() is called.
Hence this patch avoids writing into this attribute triggers a deadlock.
