    powerpc/eeh: Clear stale EEH_DEV_NO_HANDLER flag · aa06e3d6
    Sam Bobroff authored
    The EEH_DEV_NO_HANDLER flag is used by the EEH system to prevent the
    use of driver callbacks in drivers that have been bound part way
    through the recovery process. This is necessary to prevent later stage
    handlers from being called when the earlier stage handlers haven't,
    which can be confusing for drivers.
    
    However, the flag is set for all devices that are added after boot
    time and only cleared at the end of the EEH recovery process. This
    results in hot plugged devices erroneously having the flag set during
    the first recovery after they are added (causing their driver's
    handlers to be incorrectly ignored).
    
    To remedy this, clear the flag at the beginning of recovery
    processing. The flag is still cleared at the end of recovery
    processing, although it is no longer really necessary.
    
    Also clear the flag during eeh_handle_special_event(), for the same
    reasons.
