powerpc/pci: Add ppc_md.discover_phbs()
On many powerpc platforms the discovery and initalisation of pci_controllers (PHBs) happens inside of setup_arch(). This is very early in boot (pre-initcalls) and means that we're initialising the PHB long before many basic kernel services (slab allocator, debugfs, a real ioremap) are available. On PowerNV this causes an additional problem since we map the PHB registers with ioremap(). As of commit d538aadc ("powerpc/ioremap: warn on early use of ioremap()") a warning is printed because we're using the "incorrect" API to setup and MMIO mapping in searly boot. The kernel does provide early_ioremap(), but that is not intended to create long-lived MMIO mappings and a seperate warning is printed by generic code if early_ioremap() mappings are "leaked." This is all fixable with dumb hacks like using early_ioremap() to setup the initial mapping then replacing it with a real ioremap later on in boot, but it does raise the question: Why the hell are we setting up the PHB's this early in boot? The old and wise claim it's due to "hysterical rasins." Aside from amused grapes there doesn't appear to be any real reason to maintain the current behaviour. Already most of the newer embedded platforms perform PHB discovery in an arch_initcall and between the end of setup_arch() and the start of initcalls none of the generic kernel code does anything PCI related. On powerpc scanning PHBs occurs in a subsys_initcall so it should be possible to move the PHB discovery to a core, postcore or arch initcall. This patch adds the ppc_md.discover_phbs hook and a core_initcall stub that calls it. The core_initcalls are the earliest to be called so this will any possibly issues with dependency between initcalls. This isn't just an academic issue either since on pseries and PowerNV EEH init occurs in an arch_initcall and depends on the pci_controllers being available, similarly the creation of pci_dns occurs at core_initcall_sync (i.e. between core and postcore initcalls). These problems need to be addressed seperately.
