Discussed with mst, NAK this patch by myself.

In this condition, ALL devices already removed, but the sysinfo
(/proc , /sys) of func1~7 are not cleaned, this is why we can
still see it in 'lspci' output.

And Windows hotplug works fine with current seabios. In thread [1],
Kenji Kaneshige and Bjorn Helgaas accept to fix this in linux pci driver.

So NAK this seabios patch by myself, I will update original pci patch in 
thread [1]
[PATCH] pci: clean all funcs when hot-removing multifunc device

One event is enough to remove all functions, the real problem is in
clean of linux pci driver.
