Consider the following scenario:
1) primary process (A) starts, probes the bus
2) a secondary process (B) starts, probes the bus
3) yet another secondary process (C) starts
4) (C) registers the pci driver and hotplugs the device
* an IPC attach req is sent to the primary (A)
* (A) ignores the -EEXIST from process-local probe
* (A) propagates the request to all secondary processes
* (B) responds with -EEXIST
* (A) replies to the original request with the -EEXIST
return code
* the -EEXIST is returned back to the user, although the
device was successfully attached both locally and in
all other processes
This patch makes the primary process reply with rc=0 even if
there was another secondary process with the device already
attached. The primary process already didn't reply with -EEXIST
when the device was attached locally, so now this behavior is
even more consistent. Looking by the code, this seems to be the
originally intended behavior.
