[PATCH v2 00/13] EEH refactoring 2

Hello everyone,

Here is a second, somewhat deeper, set of cleanups for the EEH code
(mostly eeh_drver.c).

These changes are not intended to significantly alter the actual processing,
but rather to improve the readability and maintainability of the code. They are
subjective by nature so I would appreciate comments and suggestions.

The earlier changes are mostly to support the last patch, where we're finally
able to use a common infrastructure for the reporting functions (basically
wrappers around the driver's handlers). This allows removal of a fair bit of
code, and the easy addition of some useful messaging which should make future
maintenance easier (as an example, a recent fix in this area "powerpc/eeh: Fix
race with driver un/bind" would have required adding two lines rather than
42+/26-).

Cheers,
Sam.

Patch set changelog follows:

====== v1 -> v2: ======

Patch 1/13: powerpc/eeh: Add eeh_max_freezes to initial EEH log line

Patch 2/13: powerpc/eeh: Add final message for successful recovery

Patch 3/13: powerpc/eeh: Fix use-after-release of EEH driver

Patch 4/13: powerpc/eeh: Remove unused eeh_pcid_name()

Patch 5/13: powerpc/eeh: Strengthen types of eeh traversal functions

Patch 6/13: powerpc/eeh: Add message when PE processing at parent

Patch 7/13: powerpc/eeh: Clean up pci_ers_result handling
* Added the value, and missing newline, to some WARN()s.
* Improved name of merge_result() to pci_ers_merge_result().
* Adjusted the result priorities so that unknown doesn't overlap with _NONE.

Patch 8/13: powerpc/eeh: Introduce eeh_for_each_pe()

Patch 9/13: powerpc/eeh: Introduce eeh_edev_actionable()

Patch 10/13: powerpc/eeh: Introduce eeh_set_channel_state()

Patch 11/13: powerpc/eeh: Introduce eeh_set_irq_state()
* Reorganised eeh_set_irq_state() to reduce nesting depth.

Patch 12/13: powerpc/eeh: Cleaner handling of EEH_DEV_NO_HANDLER

Patch 13/13: powerpc/eeh: Refactor report functions
* Better name for eeh_infoline() and implement using a function.
* Move the core of eeh_pe_report() into a new function to improve readability.
* pci_ers_result_name(): match parameter name to eeh_result_priority(), correct and improve warning message.
