powerpc/powernv: Disable native PCIe port management
On PowerNV the PCIe topology is (currently) managed by the powernv platform code in Linux in cooperation with the platform firmware. Linux's native PCIe port service drivers operate independently of both and this can cause problems. The main issue is that the portbus driver will conflict with the platform specific hotplug driver (pnv_php) over ownership of the MSI used to notify the host when a hotplug event occurs. The portbus driver claims this MSI on behalf of the individual port services because the same interrupt is used for hotplug events, PMEs (on root ports), and link bandwidth change notifications. The portbus driver will always claim the interrupt even if the individual port service drivers, such as pciehp, are compiled out. The second, bigger, problem is that the hotplug port service driver fundamentally does not work on PowerNV. The platform assumes that all PCI devices have a corresponding arch-specific handle derived from the DT node for the device (pci_dn) and without one the platform will not allow a PCI device to be enabled. This problem is largely due to historical baggage, but it can't be resolved without significant re-factoring of the platform PCI support. We can fix these problems in the interim by setting the "pcie_ports_disabled" flag during platform initialisation. The flag indicates the platform owns the PCIe ports which stops the portbus driver from being registered. This does have the side effect of disabling all port services drivers that is: AER, PME, BW notifications, hotplug, and DPC. However, this is not a huge disadvantage on PowerNV since these services are either unused or handled through other means.
