Removing children before their parent

[Fabian Steiner]

Hello!

Obviously it can happen that HAL removes a parent device before the 
child does. Is there any possibility to avoid this? For me there is not 
much sense in it since it makes quite a lot of different things  
difficult (especially when you are trying to build a device tree).

Are there any plans to change this behavior? I have only found a small 
remark in [1] (revison 1.36) ...

Cheers,
Fabian
