<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 527d10ef3a315d3cb9dc098dacd61889a6c26439.

The reverted commit breaks cxlflash devices following an EEH reset (and
possibly other cxl devices, however this has not been tested).

The reverted commit changed the behaviour of eeh_reset_device() so that PHB
PEs are not unfrozen following the completion of the reset. This should not
be problematic, as no device resources should have been associated with the
PHB PE.

However, when attempting to load the cxlflash driver after a reset, the
driver attempts to read Vital Product Data through a call to
pci_read_vpd() (which is called on the physical cxl device, not on the
virtual AFU device). pci_read_vpd() in turn attempts to read from the cxl
device's config space. This fails, as the PE it's trying to read from is
still frozen. In turn, the driver gets an -ENODEV and fails to initialise.

It appears this issue only affects some parts of the VPD area, as "lspci
-vvv", which only reads a subset of the VPD bytes, is not broken by the
original patch.

At this stage, we don't fully understand why we're trying to read a frozen
PE, and we don't know how this affects other cxl devices. It is possible
that there is an underlying bug in the cxl driver or the powerpc CAPI
support code, or alternatively a bug in the PCI resource allocation/mapping
code that is incorrectly mapping resources to PE#0.

As such, this fix is incomplete, however it is necessary to prevent a
serious regression in CAPI support.

In the meantime, revert the commit, especially as it was intended to be a
non-functional change.

<title>powerpc/eeh: Force reset on fenced PHB</title>

On fenced PHB, the error handlers in the drivers of its subordinate
devices could return PCI_ERS_RESULT_CAN_RECOVER, indicating no reset
will be issued during the recovery. It's conflicting with the fact
that fenced PHB won't be recovered without reset.

This limits the return value from the error handlers in the drivers
of the fenced PHB's subordinate devices to PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_NONE
or PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET, to ensure reset will be issued during
recovery.

<title>powerpc/eeh: More relaxed hotplug criterion</title>

Currently, we rely on the existence of struct pci_driver::err_handler
to decide if the corresponding PCI device should be unplugged during
EEH recovery (partially hotplug case). However that check is not
sufficient. Some device drivers implement only some of the EEH error
handlers to collect diag-data. That means the driver still expects a
hotplug to recover from the EEH error.

This makes the hotplug criterion more relaxed: if the device driver
doesn't provide all necessary EEH error handlers, it will experience
hotplug during EEH recovery.

On PowerNV platform, the PE is kept in frozen state until the PE
reset is completed to avoid recursive EEH error caused by MMIO
access during the period of EEH reset. The PE's frozen state is
cleared after BARs of PCI device included in the PE are restored
and enabled. However, we needn't clear the frozen state for PHB PE
explicitly at this point as there is no real PE for PHB PE. As the
PHB PE is always binding with PE#0, we actually clear PE#0, which
is wrong. It doesn't incur any problem though.

This checks if the PE is PHB PE and doesn't clear the frozen state
if it is.

To retrieve the PCI slot state, EEH driver would set a timeout for that.
While current comment is not aligned to what the code does.

This patch fixes those comments according to the code.

<title>powerpc/eeh: Allow to set maximal frozen times</title>

When PE's frozen count hits maximal allowed frozen times, which is
5 currently, it will be forced to be offline permanently. Once the
PE is removed permanently, rebooting machine is required to bring
the PE back. It's not convienent when testing EEH functionality.

The patch exports the maximal allowed frozen times through debugfs
entry (/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/eeh_max_freezes).

The conditions that one specific PE's frozen count exceeds the maximal
allowed times (EEH_MAX_ALLOWED_FREEZES) and it's in isolated or recovery
state indicate the PE was removed permanently implicitly. The patch
introduces flag EEH_PE_REMOVED to indicate that explicitly so that we
don't depend on the fixed maximal allowed times, which can be varied as
we do in subsequent patch.

Flag EEH_PE_REMOVED is expected to be marked for the PE whose frozen
count exceeds the maximal allowed times, or just failed from recovery.

The patch introduces additional flag EEH_PE_RESET to indicate the
corresponding PE is under reset. In turn, the PE retrieval bakcend
on PowerNV platform can return unfrozen state for the EEH core to
moving forward. Flag EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED isn't the correct one for
the purpose.

In PCI passthrou case, the problem is more worse: Guest doesn't
recover 6th EEH error. The PE is left in isolated (frozen) and
config blocked state on Broadcom adapters. We can't retrieve the
PE's state correctly any more, even from the host side via sysfs
/sys/bus/pci/devices/xxx/eeh_pe_state.

The flag EEH_PE_RESET indicates blocking config space of the PE
during reset time. We potentially need block PE's config space
other than reset time. So it's reasonable to replace it with
EEH_PE_CFG_BLOCKED to indicate its usage.

There are no substantial code or logic changes in this patch.
