    Correctly clean up pci root buses in function pci_remove_bus()
    
    The function pci_create_root_bus() allocates the pci bus structure,
    registers the bus device and creates the legacy files for a pci root
    bus, but returns without setting the is_added flag. The is_added flag
    for a pci root bus will be set by function pci_scan_child_bus().
    If a pci root bus is destroyed before calling pci_scan_child_bus(),
    the is_added flag will not be set.  So teach function pci_remove_bus()
    to detect such a case and correctly clean up pci root buses.

What's the scenario where this happens?  Most of the
pci_scan_child_bus() calls look like this:

    bus = pci_create_root_bus();
    pci_scan_child_bus(bus);

In those cases, there's no opportunity to destroy the root bus before
calling pci_scan_child_bus().

I don't like to add additional tests as you're doing here because it's
telling us that we have more special cases to think about.  Apparently
bus->is_added is telling us that we've created legacy files and
registered the bus device.  EXCEPT for root buses.  Why is it
different for root buses?  Why don't we set root_bus->is_added at the
same time we create the legacy files and register the root bus's
device?

Hi Bjorn,
	Previously this patch was used to cover error recovery path in
our new ACPI based hotplug framework. Now thing has changed a lot and
it can't be cleanly applied to pci-next branch, so please ignore it:)
I will resubmit it if needed in future.
