Commit 0d52f54e2ef64c189dedc332e680b2eb4a34590a (PCI / ACPI: Make acpiphp
ignore root bridges using PCIe native hotplug) added code that made the
acpiphp driver completely ignore PCIe root complexes for which the kernel
had been granted control of the native PCIe hotplug feature by the BIOS
through _OSC. Later commit 619a5182d1f38a3d629ee48e04fa182ef9170052
"PCI hotplug: Always allow acpiphp to handle non-PCIe bridges" relaxed
the constraints to allow acpiphp driver handle non-PCIe bridges under
such a complex. The constraint needs to be relaxed further to allow
acpiphp driver to hanlde PCIe ports without native PCIe hotplug capability.

Some MR-IOV switch chipsets, such PLX8696, support multiple virtual PCIe
switches and may migrate downstream ports among virtual switches.
To migrate a downstream port from the source virtual switch to the target,
the port needs to be hot-removed from the source and hot-added into the
target. pciehp driver can't be used here because there's no slots within
the virtual PCIe switch. So acpiphp driver is used to support downstream
port migration. A typical configuration is as below:
[Root w/o native PCIe HP]
	[Upstream port of vswitch w/o native PCIe HP]
		[Downstream port of vswitch w/ native PCIe HP]
			[PCIe enpoint]

Here acpiphp driver will be used to handle root ports and upstream port
in the virtual switch, and pciehp driver will be used to handle downstream
ports in the virtual switch.

v1->v2: use PCIe capability accessors to read PCI_EXP_SLTCAP register

I tweaked the changelog (typos, indentation) and applied this to my
"pci/jiang-acpiphp" branch.  Kenji acked a previous version, but I
didn't add it here because this is slightly updated.

If the PLX8696 supports moving downstream ports between upstream
ports, it seems like a deficiency if the upstream port doesn't support
native hotplug.  If I understand correctly, this patch allows the use
of acpiphp for "hotplug" of the downstream ports, but that is only an
option if the PLX8696 is in the ACPI namespace.

It seems like the lack of PLX8696 native hotplug for upstream ports
mean this virtual switch migration can only be done if the PLX8696 is
soldered into the system -- for instance, we don't have any way to
deal with an 8696 on a plug-in card because ACPI won't know anything
about that device.

I'm not objecting to this patch; I'm just trying to understand the
situation better.

Hi Bjorn,
	That's true, we can't deal with 8696 on add-in cards yet. The platform
we are working with is:
	The motherboard has a specially designed slot for a root port, which
could only be used to connect an IO-extension box with 8696. So the BIOS could
build ACPI objects for the 8696 chipset.
	Thanks!
	Gerry
