[PATCH v2 3/3] powerpc/pseries: Allow user-specified PCI resource alignment after init

On pseries, custom PCI resource alignment specified with the commandline
argument pci=resource_alignment is disabled due to PCI resources being
managed by the firmware. However, in the case of PCI hotplug the
resources are managed by the kernel, so custom alignments should be
honored in these cases. This is done by only honoring custom
alignments after initial PCI initialization is done, to ensure that
all devices managed by the firmware are excluded.

Without this ability, sub-page BARs sometimes get mapped in between
page boundaries for hotplugged devices and are therefore unusable
with the VFIO framework. This change allows users to request
page alignment for devices they wish to access via VFIO using
the pci=resource_alignment commandline argument.

In the future, this could be extended to provide page-aligned
resources by default for hotplugged devices, similar to what is
done on powernv by commit 382746376993 ("powerpc/powernv: Override
pcibios_default_alignment() to force PCI devices to be page aligned")
