PCI/TPH: Refactor pcie_tph_get_cpu_st & add requester variant
This commit refactors pcie_tph_get_cpu_st() into a compatibility wrapper
and introduces pcie_tph_get_cpu_st_ext() to allow explicit TPH requester
type selection. It also adds validation for the requester type against
hardware negotiated capabilities.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but while reviewing this code I noticed a
potential out-of-bounds read in tph_invoke_dsm() when it populates the
info union.
When tph_invoke_dsm() evaluates the ACPI _DSM method, it verifies the return
type is a buffer, but it doesn't verify the buffer length before casting the
pointer to a 64-bit integer and dereferencing it:
drivers/pci/tph.c:tph_invoke_dsm() {
...
if (out_obj->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER) {
ACPI_FREE(out_obj);
return AE_ERROR;
}
st_out->value = *((u64 *)(out_obj->buffer.pointer));
...
}
Could this cause a heap out-of-bounds read if buggy ACPI firmware provides a
buffer that is smaller than 8 bytes?
