I think I fixed the problem by improving the slot_no_hotplug function in
/drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c

As far as I can tell the radeon driver set the ignore_hotplug on my
radeon pci device, but the slot_no_hotplug function never got deep
enough to reach the pci device with this flag.

After I added the functionality to iterate through all the subordinate
pci devices, the function got to the flag and didn't remove my radeon
device after it was powered down by the radeon driver (which is the
expected behaviour).

Title:
  Kernel Oops - unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
  0000000000000010; EIP is at fb_release+0x26/0x60

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My laptop has a kernel problem with the Ubuntu 15.04 live disk.

  The Kernel reports constantly about a NULL pointer reference.

  Sometimes the X-server starts without the Unity interface and the UI freezes constantly for a few seconds.
  It often ends with a complete freeze of the computer.

  Other times the computer freezes before the desktop was loaded.

  I think it could be the radeon driver for my ATI Mobility Radeon HD
  5650.
