When an fatal error is received by a non-bridge device, the device is
removed, and pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device() deallocates the device
structure. The freed device structure is used by subsequent code to send
uevents and print messages.
Hold a reference on the device until we're finished using it. This is not
an ideal fix because pcie_do_fatal_recovery() should not use the device at
all after removing it, but that's too big a project for right now.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
