The struct pci_dev uses reference counting but zPCI assumed erroneously that the last reference would always be the local reference after calling pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(). This is usually the case but not how reference counting works and thus inherently fragile. In fact one case where this causes a NULL pointer dereference when on an SRIOV device the function 0 was hot unplugged before another function of the same multi-function device. In this case the second function's pdev->sriov->dev reference keeps the struct pci_dev of function 0 alive even after the unplug. This bug was previously hidden by the fact that we were leaking the struct pci_dev which in turn means that it always outlived the struct zpci_dev. This was fixed in commit 0b13525c20fe ("s390/pci: fix leak of PCI device structure") exposing the broken behavior. Fix this by accounting for the long living reference a struct pci_dev has to its underlying struct zpci_dev via the zbus->function[] array and only release that in pcibios_release_device() ensuring that the struct pci_dev is not left with a dangling reference. This is a minimal fix in the future it would probably better to use fine grained reference counting for struct zpci_dev.
