ACPI / hotplug / PCI: Fix bridge removal race in handle_hotplug_event()

If a PCI bridge with an ACPIPHP context attached is removed via
sysfs, the code path executed as a result is the following:

pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device_locked
 pci_remove_bus
  pcibios_remove_bus
   acpi_pci_remove_bus
    acpiphp_remove_slots
     cleanup_bridge
     put_bridge
      free_bridge
       acpiphp_put_context (for each child, under context lock)
        kfree (child context)

Now, if a hotplug notify is dispatched for one of the bridge's
children and the timing is such that handle_hotplug_event() for
that notify is executed while free_bridge() above is running,
the get_bridge(context->func.parent) in handle_hotplug_event()
will not really help, because it is too late to prevent the bridge
from going away and the child's context may be freed before
hotplug_event_work() scheduled from handle_hotplug_event()
dereferences the pointer to it passed via the data argument.
That will cause a kernel crash to happpen in hotplug_event_work().

To prevent that from happening, make handle_hotplug_event()
check the is_going_away flag of the function's parent bridge
(under acpiphp_context_lock) and bail out if it's set.  Also,
make cleanup_bridge() set the bridge's is_going_away flag under
acpiphp_context_lock so that it cannot be changed between the
check and the subsequent get_bridge(context->func.parent) in
handle_hotplug_event().

Then, in the above scenario, handle_hotplug_event() will notice
that context->func.parent->is_going_away is already set and it
will exit immediately preventing the crash from happening.
