    PCI: augment bus resource table with a list · 2fe2abf8
    Bjorn Helgaas authored
    Previously we used a table of size PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES (16) for resources
    forwarded to a bus by its upstream bridge.  We've increased this size
    several times when the table overflowed.
    
    But there's no good limit on the number of resources because host bridges
    and subtractive decode bridges can forward any number of ranges to their
    secondary buses.
    
    This patch reduces the table to only PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCE_NUM (4) entries,
    which corresponds to the number of windows a PCI-to-PCI (3) or CardBus (4)
    bridge can positively decode.  Any additional resources, e.g., PCI host
    bridge windows or subtractively-decoded regions, are kept in a list.
    
    I'd prefer a single list rather than this split table/list approach, but
    that requires simultaneous changes to every architecture.  This approach
    only requires immediate changes where we set up (a) host bridges with more
    than four windows and (b) subtractive-decode P2P bridges, and we can
    incrementally change other architectures to use the list.
