[PATCH v5] powerpc/pci: Assign fixed PHB number based on device-tree properties

The domain/PHB field of PCI addresses has its value obtained from a
global variable, incremented each time a new domain (represented by
struct pci_controller) is added on the system. The domain addition
process happens during boot or due to PCI device hotplug.

As recent kernels are using predictable naming for network interfaces,
the network stack is more tied to PCI naming. This can be a problem in
hotplug scenarios, because PCI addresses will change if devices are
removed and then re-added. This situation seems unusual, but it can
happen if a user wants to replace a NIC without rebooting the machine,
for example.

This patch changes the way PCI domain values are generated: now, we use
device-tree properties to assign fixed PHB numbers to PCI addresses
when available (meaning pSeries and PowerNV cases). We also use a bitmap
to allow dynamic PHB numbering when device-tree properties are not
used. This bitmap keeps track of used PHB numbers and if a PHB is
released (by hotplug operations for example), it allows the reuse of
this PHB number, avoiding PCI address to change in case of device remove
and re-add soon after. No functional changes were introduced.

v5:
  * Improved comments.

  * Changed the the Fixed PHB Numbering to set the PHB number bit
  on the bitmap anyway, avoiding issues when system has virtual PHBs.

  * Changed the device-tree check order - now, firstly we check for
  "ibm,opal-phbid" and if it's not available, we try the pSeries case.

v4:
  * Minor change (if/else nesting rearranged).

v3:
  * Made the bitmap static.

  * Rearranged if/else statements of Fixed PHB checking.

  * Improved bitmap checkings, by removing loop and using instead the
  find_first_zero_bit() function.

  * Removed the single-statement function release_phb_number() by
  adding its logic directly into pcibios_free_controller().

  *Added check for bitmap size before clearing bit, avoiding memory
  corruption.

v2:
  * Added the Fixed PHB Numbering mechanism based on device-tree
  properties.

  * Changed list approach to bitmap on the Dynamic PHB Numbering
  mechanism.
