Subject: powerpc/eeh: Fix fenced PHB caused by eeh_slot_error_detail()

From: Gavin Shan <gwshan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 259800135c654a098d9f0adfdd3d1f20eef1f231 upstream.

The config space of some PCI devices can't be accessed when their
PEs are in frozen state. Otherwise, fenced PHB might be seen.
Those PEs are identified with flag EEH_PE_CFG_RESTRICTED, meaing
EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED is set automatically when the PE is put to
frozen state (EEH_PE_ISOLATED). eeh_slot_error_detail() restores
PCI device BARs with eeh_pe_restore_bars(), which then calls
eeh_ops->restore_config() to reinitialize the PCI device in
(OPAL) firmware. eeh_ops->restore_config() produces PCI config
access that causes fenced PHB. The problem was reported on below
adapter:

   0001:01:00.0 0200: 14e4:168e (rev 10)
   0001:01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation \
                NetXtreme II BCM57810 10 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)

This fixes the issue by skipping eeh_pe_restore_bars() in
eeh_slot_error_detail() when EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED is set for the PE.
