    PCI/MSI: Allow arch code to return the number of MSI-X available · b5fbf533
    Michael Ellerman authored
    There is code in msix_capability_init() which, when the requested number
    of MSI-X couldn't be allocated, calculates how many MSI-X /could/ be
    allocated and returns that to the driver. That allows the driver to then
    make a second request, with a number of MSIs that should succeed.
    
    The current code requires the arch code to setup as many msi_descs as it
    can, and then return to the generic code. On some platforms the arch
    code may already know how many MSI-X it can allocate, before it sets up
    any of the msi_descs.
    
    So change the logic such that if the arch code returns a positive error
    code, that is taken to be the number of MSI-X that could be allocated.
    If the error code is negative we still calculate the number available
    using the old method.
    
    Because it's a little subtle, make sure the error return code from
    arch_setup_msi_irq() is always negative. That way only implementations
    of arch_setup_msi_irqs() need to be careful about returning a positive
    error code.
