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

[Bjorn Helgaas]

Hi Sergey,

Since this doesn't touch drivers/pci, I assume powerpc folks will
handle this series.  Let me know if otherwise.

s/bdfns/BDFs/  Maybe?  I see this is a reference to another patch
  series, but if it hasn't been merged yet, "BDFs" would be consistent
  with "VFs" and give a hint that "bdfns" is not itself a word.

"pci=realloc" also means "switch from pnv_php to pciehp".

The only direct effect of "pci=realloc" is to set pci_realloc_enable.
I haven't read the patches, but is there really something in
arch/powerpc/ that does something different based on
pci_realloc_enable?
