[PATCH RFC v2 00/29] Introduce pcim_enable_msi*() family helpers

[Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@redhat.com>]

This series is against "next" branch in Bjorn's repo:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci.git

Currently many device drivers need contiguously call functions
pci_enable_msix() for MSI-X or pci_enable_msi_block() for MSI
in a loop until success or failure. This update generalizes
this usage pattern and introduces pcim_enable_msi*() family
helpers.

As result, device drivers do not have to deal with tri-state
return values from pci_enable_msix() and pci_enable_msi_block()
functions directly and expected to have more clearer and straight
code.

So i.e. the request loop described in the documentation...

	int foo_driver_enable_msix(struct foo_adapter *adapter,
				   int nvec)
	{
		while (nvec >= FOO_DRIVER_MINIMUM_NVEC) {
			rc = pci_enable_msix(adapter->pdev,
					     adapter->msix_entries,
					     nvec);
			if (rc > 0)
				nvec = rc;
			else
				return rc;
		}

		return -ENOSPC;
	}

...would turn into a single helper call....

	rc = pcim_enable_msix_range(adapter->pdev,
				    adapter->msix_entries,
				    nvec,
				    FOO_DRIVER_MINIMUM_NVEC);


Device drivers with more specific requirements (i.e. a number of
MSI-Xs which is a multiple of a certain number within a specified
range) would still need to implement the loop using the two old
functions.

It is fair to say the proposal in v1 ("Re-design MSI/MSI-X interrupts
enablement pattern")is scrapped. Thus, I do not clarify what are the
changes since v1  - the whole v2 series could be
considered as completely new.

Device driver updates (patches 12-29) are provided to clarify the
change and expected to get reviews in follow-up post(s) when/if
patch 12 ("PCI/MSI: Introduce pcim_enable_msi*() family helpers")
is accepted.

Patches 1,2	- ACK'ed tweaks for s390 architecture
Patches 3,4	- fixes for PowerPC pSeries platform
Patches 5-12	- fixes, tweaks and changes of the generic MSI code
Patches 12-29	- example updates of few device drivers

The tree could be found in "pci-next-msi-v2" branch in repo:
