This patch leverages 'struct pci_host_bridge' from the PCI subsystem
in order to free the pci_controller only after the last reference to
its devices is dropped (avoiding an oops in pcibios_release_device()
if the last reference is dropped after pcibios_free_controller()).
The patch relies on pci_host_bridge.release_fn() (and .release_data),
which is called automatically by the PCI subsystem when the root bus
is released (i.e., the last reference is dropped). Those fields are
set via pci_set_host_bridge_release() (e.g. in the platform-specific
implementation of pcibios_root_bridge_prepare()).
It introduces the 'pcibios_free_controller_deferred()' .release_fn()
and it expects .release_data to hold a pointer to the pci_controller.
The function implictly calls 'pcibios_free_controller()', so an user
must *NOT* explicitly call it if using the new _deferred() callback.
The functionality is enabled for pseries (although it isn't platform
specific, and may be used by cxl).
Details on not-so-elegant design choices:
- Use 'pci_host_bridge.release_data' field as pointer to associated
'struct pci_controller' so *not* to 'pci_bus_to_host(bridge->bus)'
in pcibios_free_controller_deferred().
That's because pci_remove_root_bus() sets 'host_bridge->bus = NULL'
(so, if the last reference is released after pci_remove_root_bus()
runs, which eventually reaches pcibios_free_controller_deferred(),
that would hit a null pointer dereference).
The cxl/vphb.c code calls pci_remove_root_bus(), and the cxl folks
are interested in this fix.
