When hot removing a pci express module that has a pcie switch and supports
SRIOV, we got:

root complex: 80:02.2
pci express modules: have pcie switch and are listed as b0:00.0, b1:02.0 and b1:03.0.
end devices  are b2:00.0 and b3.00.0.
VFs are: b2:00.1,... b2:00.3, and b3:00.1,...,b3:00.3

Root cause: when doing pci_stop_bus_device() with phys fn, it will stop
virt fn and remove the fn, so
list_for_each_safe(l, n, &bus->devices)
will have problem to refer freed n that is pointed to vf entry.

Solution is just replacing list_for_each_safe() with
list_for_each_prev_safe().  This will make sure we can get valid n pointer
to PF instead of the freed VF pointer (because newly added devices are
inserted to the bus->devices list tail).

During reviewing the patch, Bjorn said:
|   The PCI hot-remove path calls pci_stop_bus_devices() via
|   pci_remove_bus_device().
|
|   pci_stop_bus_devices() traverses the bus->devices list (point A below),
|   stopping each device in turn, which calls the driver remove() method.  When
|   the device is an SR-IOV PF, the driver calls pci_disable_sriov(), which
|   also uses pci_remove_bus_device() to remove the VF devices from the
|   bus->devices list (point B).
|
|       pci_remove_bus_device
|         pci_stop_bus_device
|           pci_stop_bus_devices(subordinate)
|             list_for_each(bus->devices)             <-- A
|               pci_stop_bus_device(PF)
|                 ...
|                   driver->remove
|                     pci_disable_sriov
|                       ...
|                         pci_remove_bus_device(VF)
|                             <remove from bus_list>  <-- B
|
|   At B, we're changing the same list we're iterating through at A, so when
|   the driver remove() method returns, the pci_stop_bus_devices() iterator has
|   a pointer to a list entry that has already been freed.

-v5: According to Linus to make remove more robust, Change to
     list_for_each_prev_safe instead. That is more reasonable, because
     those devices are added to tail of the list before.
