x86/PCI: Infrastructure to maintain a list of FW-assigned BIOS BAR values
Commit 58c84eda introduced functionality to try and reinstate the original BIOS BAR addresses of a PCI device when normal resource assignment attempts fail. To keep track of the BIOS BAR addresses, struct pci_dev was augmented with an array to hold the BAR addresses of the PCI device: 'resource_size_t fw_addr[DEVICE_COUNT_RESOURCE]'. The reinstatement of BAR addresses is an uncommon event leaving the 'fw_addr' array unused under normal circumstances. This functionality is also currently architecture specific with an implementation limited to x86. As the use of struct pci_dev is so prevalent, having the 'fw_addr' array residing within such seems somewhat wasteful. This patch introduces a stand alone data structure and interfacing routines for maintaining a list of FW-assigned BIOS BAR value entries.
