[PATCH 05/10] IOCHK interface for I/O error handling/detecting

[This is 5 of 10 patches, "iochk-05-check_bridge.patch"]

- Consider three devices, A, B, and C are placed under a same
   host bridge H. After A and B checked-in (=passed iochk_clear,
   doing some I/Os, not come to call iochk_read yet), now C is
   going to check-in, just entered iochk_clear, but C finds out
   that H indicates error.

   It means that A or B hits a bus error, but there is no data
   which one actually hits the error. So, C should notify the
   error to both of A and B, and clear the H's status to start
   its own I/Os.

   If there are only two devices, it become more simple. It is
   clear if one find a bridge error while another is check-in,
   the error is nothing except for another's.

Well, works concerning registers (devices and bridges) are
almost shaped up. So, from next, I'll move to deep phase
to implement more arch-specific codes... see next (6 of 10).
