[PATCH v5 0/8] powerpc/powernv/pci: Make hotplug self-sufficient, independent of FW and DT

This patchset allows switching from the pnv_php module to the standard
pciehp driver for PCIe hotplug functionality, if the platform supports it:
PowerNV working on on top of the skiboot with the "core/pci: Sync VFs and
the changes of bdfns between the firmware and the OS" [1] patch serie
applied.

The feature is activated by the "pci=realloc" command line argument.

The goal is ability to hotplug bridges full of devices in the future. The
"Movable BARs" [2] is a platform-independent part of our work in this. The
final part will be movable bus numbers to support inserting a bridge in the
middle of an existing PCIe tree.

Tested on POWER8 PowerNV+PHB3 ppc64le (our Vesnin server) with:
 - the pciehp driver active;
 - the pnv_php driver disabled;
 - The "pci=realloc" argument is passed;
 - surprise hotplug of an NVME disk works;
 - controlled hotplug of a network card with SR-IOV works;
 - activating of SR-IOV on a network card works;
 - [with extra patches] manually initiated (via sysfs) rescan has found
   and turned on a hotplugged bridge;
 - Without "pci=realloc" works just as before.

Changes since v4:
 - Fixed failing build when EEH is disabled in a kernel config;
 - Unfreeze the bus on EEH_IO_ERROR_VALUE(size), not only 0xffffffff;
 - Replaced the 0xff magic constant with phb->ioda.reserved_pe_idx;
 - Renamed create_pdn() -> pci_create_pdn_from_dev();
 - Renamed add_one_dev_pci_data(..., vf_index, ...) -> pci_alloc_pdn();
 - Renamed add_dev_pci_data() -> pci_create_vf_pdns();
 - Renamed remove_dev_pci_data() -> pci_destroy_vf_pdns();
 - Removed the patch fixing uninitialized IOMMU group - now it is fixed in
   commit 8f5b27347e88 ("powerpc/powernv/sriov: Register IOMMU groups for
   VFs")

Changes since v3 [3]:
 - Subject changed;
 - Don't disable EEH during rescan anymore - instead just unfreeze the
   target buses deliberately;
 - Add synchronization with the firmware when changing the PCIe topology;
 - Fixed for VFs;
 - Code cleanup.

Changes since v2:
 - Don't reassign bus numbers on PowerNV by default (to retain the default
   behavior), but only when pci=realloc is passed;
 - Less code affected;
 - pci_add_device_node_info is refactored with add_one_dev_pci_data;
 - Minor code cleanup.

Changes since v1:
 - Fixed build for ppc64le and ppc64be when CONFIG_PCI_IOV is disabled;
 - Fixed build for ppc64e when CONFIG_EEH is disabled;
 - Fixed code style warnings.

Sergey Miroshnichenko (8):
  powerpc/pci: Access PCI config space directly w/o pci_dn
  powerpc/powernv/pci: Suppress an EEH error when reading an empty slot
  powerpc/pci: Create pci_dn on demand
  powerpc/pci: Reduce code duplication in pci_add_device_node_info
  powerpc/pci/IOV: Add support for runtime enabling the VFs
  powerpc/pci: Don't rely on DT is the PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS is set
