pcibios_alloc_irq() will be called in pci_device_probe(), but there
hasn't pcibios_free_irq() in arm64 architecture correspond it.
pcibios_free_irq() is an empty weak function in drivers/pci/pci-driver.c.
"pcibios_alloc_irq() is a weak function called to allocate IRQs for
a device in pci_device_probe(); arm64 implements it with
ACPI specific code to enable IRQs for a device.

When a device is removed (pci_device_remove()) the pcibios_free_irq()
counterpart is called.

Current arm64 code does not implement a pcibios_free_irq() function,
and therefore, the weak empty stub is executed, which means that the
IRQ for a device are not properly disabled when a device is removed.

Add an arm64 pcibios_free_irq() to undo the actions carried out in
pcibios_alloc_irq()."

This is a stub commit log. Then you need to describe the bug you
are fixing (if any, or it is just code inspection ?)
It is just code inspection.
Before merging it it must be tested, which would prove it is needed.
Ok, I'll ignore this patch for now then. Please yell if you want me to pick
it up.

Will
