Subject: [PATCH/RESEND] PCI:pciehp:remove unnecessary volatile in struct controller

From: Ming Lei <[email protected]>

Proper memory barriers have been added to order accesses
to ->cmd_busy, so volatile declaration for cmd_busy can
be removed.

Yeah I saw the first one, just hadn't had a chance to reply/apply yet. I just
applied it to my linux-next branch and pushed.
