Bjorn Helgaas 0f50a49e30 Revert "PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream bridges"
This reverts commit 40f11adc7c.

Jens found that iwlwifi firmware loading failed on a Lenovo X1 Carbon,
gen4:

  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-34.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-33.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-32.ucode failed with error -2
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: loaded firmware version 31.532993.0 op_mode iwlmvm
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 8260, REV=0x208
  ...
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to load firmware chunk!
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Could not load the [0] uCode section
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to start INIT ucode: -110
  iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Failed to run INIT ucode: -110

He bisected it to 40f11adc7c ("PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream
bridges").  Revert that commit to fix the regression.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
