The code is only slightly modified : entry points now use the
FIXUP_ENDIAN trampoline to switch endian order. The 32bit wrapper
is kept for big endian kernels and 64bit is enforced for little
endian kernels with a PPC64_BOOT_WRAPPER config option.
The linker script is generated using the kernel preprocessor flags
to make use of the CONFIG_* definitions and the wrapper script is
modified to take into account the new elf64ppc format.
Finally, the zImage file is compiled as a position independent
executable (-pie) which makes it loadable at any address by the
firmware.

The problem was initially reported by Wendy who tried pass through
IPR adapter, which was connected to PHB root port directly, to KVM
based guest. When doing that, pci_reset_bridge_secondary_bus() was
called by VFIO driver and linkDown was detected by the root port.
That caused all PEs to be frozen.
The patch fixes the issue by routing the reset for the secondary bus
of root port to underly firmware. For that, one more weak function
pci_reset_secondary_bus() is introduced so that the individual platforms
can override that and do specific reset for bridge's secondary bus.

The issue was detected in a bit complicated test case where
we have multiple hierarchical PEs shown as following figure:
+-----------------+
| PE#3 p2p#0 |
| p2p#1 |
+-----------------+
|
+-----------------+
| PE#4 pdev#0 |
| pdev#1 |
+-----------------+
PE#4 (have 2 PCI devices) is the child of PE#3, which has 2 p2p
bridges. We accidentally had less-known scenario: PE#4 was removed
permanently from the system because of permanent failure (e.g.
exceeding the max allowd failure times in last hour), then we detects
EEH errors on PE#3 and tried to recover it. However, eeh_dev instances
for pdev#0/1 were not detached from PE#4, which was still connected to
PE#3. All of that was because of the fact that we rely on count-based
pcibios_release_device(), which isn't reliable enough. When doing
recovery for PE#3, we still apply hotplug on PE#4 and pdev#0/1, which
are not valid any more. Eventually, we run into kernel crash.
The patch fixes above issue from two aspects. For unplug, we simply
skip those permanently removed PE, whose state is (EEH_PE_STATE_ISOLATED
&& !EEH_PE_STATE_RECOVERING) and its frozen count should be greater
than EEH_MAX_ALLOWED_FREEZES. For plug, we marked all permanently
removed EEH devices with EEH_DEV_REMOVED and return 0xFF's on read
its PCI config so that PCI core will omit them.

We have suffered recrusive frozen PE a lot, which was caused
by IO accesses during the PE reset. Ben came up with the good
idea to keep frozen PE until recovery (BAR restore) gets done.
With that, IO accesses during PE reset are dropped by hardware
and wouldn't incur the recrusive frozen PE any more.
The patch implements the idea. We don't clear the frozen state
until PE reset is done completely. During the period, the EEH
core expects unfrozen state from backend to keep going. So we
have to reuse EEH_PE_RESET flag, which has been set during PE
reset, to return normal state from backend. The side effect is
we have to clear frozen state for towice (PE reset and clear it
explicitly), but that's harmless.
We have some limitations on pHyp. pHyp doesn't allow to enable
IO or DMA for unfrozen PE. So we don't enable them on unfrozen PE
in eeh_pci_enable(). We have to enable IO before grabbing logs on
pHyp. Otherwise, 0xFF's is always returned from PCI config space.
Also, we had wrong return value from eeh_pci_enable() for
EEH_OPT_THAW_DMA case. The patch fixes it too.

We've observed multiple PE reset failures because of PCI-CFG
access during that period. Potentially, some device drivers
can't support EEH very well and they can't put the device to
motionless state before PE reset. So those device drivers might
produce PCI-CFG accesses during PE reset. Also, we could have
PCI-CFG access from user space (e.g. "lspci"). Since access to
frozen PE should return 0xFF's, we can block PCI-CFG access
during the period of PE reset so that we won't get recrusive EEH
errors.
The patch adds flag EEH_PE_RESET, which is kept during PE reset.
The PowerNV/pSeries PCI-CFG accessors reuse the flag to block
PCI-CFG accordingly.

I've had a report that the current limit is too small for
an automated network based installer. Bump it.

We have two definitions of COMMAND_LINE_SIZE, one for the kernel
and one for the boot wrapper. I assume this is so the boot
wrapper can be self sufficient and not rely on kernel headers.
Having two defines with the same name is confusing, I just
updated the wrong one when trying to bump it.
Make the boot wrapper define unique by calling it
BOOT_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.

32bits of padding) to a be64, update the code to treat it as a be64
