commit ac0e89bb4744d3882ccd275f2416d9ce22f4e1e7 upstream.

We use logical negate where bitwise negate was intended.  It means that
we never return -EINVAL here.

<title>KVM: PPC: Book3s PR: Allow access to unprivileged MMCR2 register</title>

commit fa73c3b25bd8d0d393dc6109a1dba3c2aef0451e upstream.

The MMCR2 register is available twice, one time with number 785
(privileged access), and one time with number 769 (unprivileged,
but it can be disabled completely). In former times, the Linux
kernel was using the unprivileged register 769 only, but since
commit 8dd75ccb571f3c92c ("powerpc: Use privileged SPR number
for MMCR2"), it uses the privileged register 785 instead.
The KVM-PR code then of course also switched to use the SPR 785,
but this is causing older guest kernels to crash, since these
kernels still access 769 instead. So to support older kernels
with KVM-PR again, we have to support register 769 in KVM-PR, too.

Commit 5958d19a143e checks for prefetchable m64 BARs by comparing the
addresses instead of using resource flags.  This broke SR-IOV as the m64
check in pnv_pci_ioda_fixup_iov_resources() fails.

The condition in pnv_pci_window_alignment() also changed to checking
only IORESOURCE_MEM_64 instead of both IORESOURCE_MEM_64 and
IORESOURCE_PREFETCH.

Revert these cases to the previous behaviour, adding a new helper function
to do so.  This is named pnv_pci_is_m64_flags() to make it clear this
function is only looking at resource flags and should not be relied on for
non-SRIOV resources.

In commit f0228c413011 ("powerpc/powernv/pci: Fallback to OPAL for TCE
invalidations"), we added logic to fallback to OPAL for doing TCE
invalidations if we can't do it in Linux.

Ben sent a v2 of the patch, containing these additional call sites, but
I had already applied v1 and didn't notice. So fix them now.

The PCI hotplug can be part of EEH error recovery. The @pdn and
the device's PE number aren't removed and added afterwords. The
PE number in @pdn should be set to an invalid one. Otherwise, the
PE's device count is decreased on removing devices while failing
to be increased on adding devices. It leads to unbalanced PE's
device count and make normal PCI hotplug path broken.

The PE for root bus (root PE) can be removed because of PCI hot

shouldn't be destroyed as it's global and reserved resource.
