When turning this from inline to an exported function I was a bit
over-eager and made it GPL only. This prevents the use of pretty much
all non-GPL PCI driver which is a bit over the top. Let's bring it
back in line with other architecture.

<title>powerpc/rtas: Validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas()</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently we do not validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas(). This
leads to a kernel oops when user space calls rtas system call on a powernv
platform (see below). This patch adds code to validate rtas.entry before
making enter_rtas() call.

memset() uses instruction dcbz to speed up clearing by not wasting time
loading cache line with data that will be overwritten.
Some platform like mpc52xx do no have cache active at startup and
can therefore not use memset(). Allthough no part of the code
explicitly uses memset(), GCC may make calls to it.

This patch modifies memset() such that at startup, memset()
unconditionally skip the optimised bloc that uses dcbz instruction.

Once the initial MMU is set up, in machine_init() we patch memset()
by replacing this inconditional jump by a NOP

Revert dff22d2054b5 ("PCI: Call pci_read_bridge_bases() from core instead
of arch code").

Reading PCI bridge windows is not arch-specific in itself, but there is PCI
core code that doesn't work correctly if we read them too early.  For
example, Hannes found this case on an ARM Freescale i.mx6 board:

  pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [mem 0x01000000-0x01efffff]
  pci 0000:00:00.0: PCI bridge to [bus 01-ff]
  pci 0000:00:00.0: BAR 8: no space for [mem size 0x01000000] (mem window)
  pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 2: failed to assign [mem size 0x00200000]
  pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 1: failed to assign [mem size 0x00004000]
  pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 0: failed to assign [mem size 0x00000100]

The 00:00.0 mem window needs to be at least 3MB: the 01:00.0 device needs
0x204100 of space, and mem windows are megabyte-aligned.

Bus sizing can increase a bridge window size, but never *decrease* it (see
d65245c3297a ("PCI: don't shrink bridge resources")).  Prior to
dff22d2054b5, ARM didn't read bridge windows at all, so the "original size"
was zero, and we assigned a 3MB window.

After dff22d2054b5, we read the bridge windows before sizing the bus.  The
firmware programmed a 16MB window (size 0x01000000) in 00:00.0, and since
we never decrease the size, we kept 16MB even though we only needed 3MB.
But 16MB doesn't fit in the host bridge aperture, so we failed to assign
space for the window and the downstream devices.

I think this is a defect in the PCI core: we shouldn't rely on the firmware
to assign sensible windows.

Ray reported a similar problem, also on ARM, with Broadcom iProc.

Issues like this are too hard to fix right now, so revert dff22d2054b5.

Use access helper irq_data_get_affinity_mask() so we can move the
affinity mask to irq_common_data.
