The PCI hotplug core keeps a list of all registered slots. Its sole
purpose is to WARN() on slot removal if another slot is using the same
name.
But this can never happen because already on slot creation, an error is
returned and multiple messages are emitted if a slot's name is
duplicated:
pci_hp_register()
__pci_hp_register()
__pci_hp_initialize()
pci_create_slot()
kobject_init_and_add()
kobject_add_varg()
kobject_add_internal()
create_dir()
sysfs_create_dir_ns()
kernfs_create_dir_ns()
sysfs_warn_dup()
pr_warn("cannot create duplicate filename ...")
pr_err("%s failed for %s with -EEXIST, ...");
Drop the superfluous list.

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.
