[PATCH v2 3/6] pseries: Create new device hotplug entry point

Create a new entry point for device hotplug on pseries that will
work for both PowerVM and PowerKVM systems.
The current process to hotplug (or dlpar) devices (generally the same
process for memory, cpu, and pci devices) on PowerVM systems is initiated
from the HMC, which communicates the request to the partitions through
the RSCT framework. The RSCT framework then invokes the drmgr command.
The drmgr command performs the hotplug operation by doing some pieces,
such as most of the rtas calls and device tree parsing, in userspace
and make requests to the kernel to online/offline the device, update the
device tree and add/remove the device.
For PowerKVM the approach for device hotplug is to follow what is currently
being done for pci hotplug. A hotplug request is initiated from the host,
QEMU then generates an EPOW interrupt to the guest which causes the guest
to make the rtas,check-exception call. In QEMU, the rtas,check-exception call
returns a rtas hotplug event to the guest.
Please note that the current pci hotplug path for PowerKVM involves the
kernel receiving the rtas hotplug event, passing it to rtas_errd in
userspace, and having rtas_errd invoke drmgr. The drmgr command then
handles the request as described above for PowerVM systems. This is to
be updated to perform pci completely in the kernel in a later patch set.
There is no need for this circuitous route, we should handle the entire
hotplug of devices in the kernel. What I am planning is to enable this
by moving the code to handle device hotplug from drmgr into the kernel to
provide a single path for both PowerVM and PowerKVM systems. This patch
provides the common entry point. For PowerKVM a future update to the kernel
rtas code will recognize rtas hotplug events returned from
rtas,check-exception calls and use the common entry point to handle device
hotplug entirely in the kernel.
For PowerVM systems, this patch creates the /sys/kernel/dlpar file that rtas
hotplug events can be written to by drmgr and passed to the common entry point.
There is no chance of updating how we receive hotplug requests on PowerVM
systems.
