[PATCH v2] PCI: host-common: Request bus reassignment when not probe-only

[PATCH v2] PCI: host-common: Request bus reassignment when not probe-only

[Ratheesh Kannoth]

pci_host_common_init() is used by several generic ECAM host drivers.
After PCI core changes around pci_flags and preserve_config, these hosts
no longer opted into full bus number reassignment the way they did
before.

When PCI_PROBE_ONLY is not set, add PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS so
pci_scan_bridge_extend() takes the reassignment path: bus numbers can be
assigned from firmware EA data (e.g. pci_ea_fixed_busnrs()). Skip the
flag in probe-only mode so existing assignments are not overridden.

Thanks for the fix!  Was there a bug report associated with this?  Is
there a symptom we can mention so we can connect the problem to this
solution?

I don't have access to that bug report.  If there's nothing secret in
it, can you make it public?

I assume this is the same issue you mentioned at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/abkqm_LCd9zAM8cW@rkannoth-OptiPlex-7090/?

Your email response was HTML, so the mailing lists rejected it, which
is why your response doesn't appear here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260414081730.3864372-1-rkannoth@marvell.com/t/#u

If you can send plain-text emails, that will work better in the Linux
ecosystem.  More details at

Apologies for the access issue. I am still familiarizing myself with the platform's privacy settings, but I certainly intended for this to be a public report. 
I'll explore the settings now to make it generic/public and will get back to you

Yes. I believe, we can ignore Bugzilla report as per https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.19/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.html ?
"Once you know the subsystem that is causing the issue, you should send a bug report. Some maintainers prefer bugs to be reported via bugzilla (https://bugzilla.kernel.org), while others prefer that bugs be reported via the subsystem mailing list."

Sorry about that. My mail client (Outlook) defaulted to HTML formatting. Will be more careful in future.

Kindly advise if there are any outstanding action items required from my side. I see that the patch is not available in net-next yet
 or backported to stable versions. I want to ensure I haven't missed a step, so please excuse my impatience if it is simply a matter 
of the usual release cycle.

This is queued on pci/controller/host-common and is in pci/next for
v7.2.  I will ask Linus to pull that branch sometime this week.  This
is separate from net-next, so it won't appear there.  Backports to
stable will happen after Linus pulls the branch.
