Currently, the IO-links to the device being removed from topology,
are not cleared. As a result, there would be dangling links left in
the KFD topology. This patch aims to fix the following:
1. Cleanup all IO links to the device being removed.
2. Ensure that node numbering in sysfs and nodes proximity domain
values are consistent after the device is removed:
a. Adding a device and removing a GPU device are made mutually
exclusive.
b. The global proximity domain counter is no longer required to be
an atomic counter. A normal 32-bit counter can be used instead.
3. Update generation_count to let user-mode know that topology has
changed due to device removal.

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 Restructured Text 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.
