[PATCH 0/8]

Hi all,

This patch set adds support for EEH recovery of hot plugged devices on pSeries
machines. Specifically, devices discovered by PCI rescanning using
/sys/bus/pci/rescan, which includes devices hotplugged by QEMU's device_add
command. (pSeries doesn't currently use slot power control for hotplugging.)

As a side effect this also provides EEH support for devices removed by
/sys/bus/pci/devices/*/remove and re-discovered by writing to /sys/bus/pci/rescan,
on all platforms.

The approach I've taken is to use the fact that the existing
pcibios_bus_add_device() platform hooks (which are used to set up EEH on
Virtual Function devices (VFs)) are actually called for all devices, so I've
widened their scope and made other adjustments necessary to allow them to work
for hotplugged and boot-time devices as well.

Because some of the changes are in generic PowerPC code, it's
possible that I've disturbed something for another PowerPC platform. I've tried
to minimize this by leaving that code alone as much as possible and so there
are a few cases where eeh_add_device_{early,late}() or eeh_add_sysfs_files() is
called more than once. I think these can be looked at later, as duplicate calls
are not harmful.

The patch "Convert PNV_PHB_FLAG_EEH" isn't strictly necessary and I'm not sure
if it's better to keep it, because it simplifies the code or drop it, because
we may need a separate flag per PHB later on. Thoughts anyone?

The first patch is a rework of the pcibios_init reordering patch I posted
earlier, which I've included here because it's necessary for this set.

I have done some testing for PowerNV on Power9 using a modified pnv_php module
and some testing on pSeries with slot power control using a modified rpaphp
module, and the EEH-related parts seem to work.

Cheers,
Sam.
