    powerpc/pci: Delay populating pdn · 8cc7581c
    Gavin Shan authored
    The pdn (struct pci_dn) instances are allocated from memblock or
    bootmem when creating PCI controller (hoses) in setup_arch(). PCI
    hotplug, which will be supported by proceeding patches, releases
    PCI device nodes and their corresponding pdn on unplugging event.
    The memory chunks for pdn instances allocated from memblock or
    bootmem are hard to reused after being released.
    
    This delays creating pdn by pci_devs_phb_init() from setup_arch()
    to core_initcall() so that they are allocated from slab. The memory
    consumed by pdn can be released to system without problem during
    PCI unplugging time. It indicates that pci_dn is unavailable in
    setup_arch() and the the fixup on pdn (like AGP's) can't be carried
    out that time. We have to do that in pcibios_root_bridge_prepare()
    on maple/pasemi/powermac platforms where/when the pdn is available.
    pcibios_root_bridge_prepare is called from subsys_initcall() which
    is executed after core_initcall() so the code flow does not change.
    
    At the mean while, the EEH device is created when pdn is populated,
    meaning pdn and EEH device have same life cycle. In turn, we needn't
    call eeh_dev_init() to create EEH device explicitly.
