Yeah, "errinjct" needs grab PCI_domain_nr+PE number from sysfs. We
already had PE number sysfs file:

[root@ltcfbl8eb 0000:01:00.1]# pwd
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.1
[root@ltcfbl8eb 0000:01:00.1]# cat eeh_pe_config_addr 
0x1

For guest support, we will rely on VFIO group ioctl command, which
naturally depends on pass-through.

We probably implement it like this. If there're anything wrong, please
correct me:

- Introduce EEH callback struct eeh_ops::err_inject(), which will be
  implemented for PowerNV (NULL for pSeries) by calling the PCI error
  injection dedicated OPAL API (opal_pci_err_inject()).
- Introduce global function eeh.c::eeh_err_inject(), which calls to
  eeh_ops::err_inject() and newly introduced VFIO EEH operation
  will be implemented based on this function.
- Introduce debugfs /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/PCIxxxx/errinjct, which
  receives PCI error injection parameters from "errinjct". It could
  have format: "ei_token:addr:mask:PCI_domain_nr:PE_num:function".
  Eventually, eeh_err_inject() is invoked to call the corresponding
  OPAL API.

Thanks,
Gavin
