powerpc/pci: Assign fixed PHB number based on device-tree properties
The domain/PHB field of PCI addresses has its value obtained from a global variable, incremented each time a new domain (represented by struct pci_controller) is added on the system. The domain addition process happens during boot or due to PHB hotplug add. As recent kernels are using predictable naming for network interfaces, the network stack is more tied to PCI naming. This can be a problem in hotplug scenarios, because PCI addresses will change if devices are removed and then re-added. This situation seems unusual, but it can happen if a user wants to replace a NIC without rebooting the machine, for example. This patch changes the way PCI domain values are generated: now, we use device-tree properties to assign fixed PHB numbers to PCI addresses when available (meaning pSeries and PowerNV cases). We also use a bitmap to allow dynamic PHB numbering when device-tree properties are not used. This bitmap keeps track of used PHB numbers and if a PHB is released (by hotplug operations for example), it allows the reuse of this PHB number, avoiding PCI address to change in case of device remove and re-add soon after. No functional changes were introduced. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.
