[PATCH 1/5] PCI: Add a new PCI_BUS_FLAGS_MSI_REMAP flag

[Yongji Xie]

We introduce a new pci_bus_flags, PCI_BUS_FLAGS_MSI_REMAP
which indicates all devices on the bus are protected by the
hardware which supports IRQ remapping(intel naming).

This flag will be used to know whether it's safe to expose
MSI-X tables of PCI BARs to userspace. Because the capability
of IRQ remapping can guarantee the PCI device cannot trigger
MSIs that correspond to interrupt IDs of other devices.

There is a existing flag for this in the IOMMU space:

enum iommu_cap {
	IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY,
--->	IOMMU_CAP_INTR_REMAP,
	IOMMU_CAP_NOEXEC,
};

and Eric also posted a patchset [1] to abstract this
capability on MSI controller side for ARM. But it would
make sense to have a more common flag like
PCI_BUS_FLAGS_MSI_REMAP in this patch so that we can use
a universal flag to test this capability on PCI side for
different archs.
