When a device is hot removed on powernv, the hotplug driver clears the device's state. However, on pseries, if a device is removed by phyp after reaching the error threshold, the kernel remains unaware, leading to the device not being torn down. This prevents necessary remediation actions like failover. Permanently disable the device if the presence check fails. Also, in eeh_dev_check_failure in we may consider the error as false positive if the device is hotpluged out as the get_state call returns EEH_STATE_NOT_SUPPORT and we may end up not clearing the device state, so log the event if the state is not moved to permanent failure state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
