      powerpc/pseries: use pci_host_bridge.release_fn() to kfree(phb) · d316a8af

      BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1618151
      
      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.
