[PATCH 1/1] pci: reset all pci endpoints to stop on going dma

This is an update of the patch
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/10/37

This patch is doing the reset works before the kdump kernel boots.

On a Linux system with iommu supported and many PCI devices on it,
when kernel crashed and the kdump kernel boots with intel_iommu=on,
there may be some unexpected DMA requests on this adapter, which will
cause DMA Remapping faults like:
    dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 102
    dmar: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [41:00.0] fault addr fff81000
    DMAR:[fault reason 01] Present bit in root entry is clear

This bug may happen on *any* PCI device.
Analysis for this bug:

The present bit is set in this function:

static struct context_entry * device_to_context_entry(
                struct intel_iommu *iommu, u8 bus, u8 devfn)
{
    ......
                set_root_present(root);
    ......
}

Calling tree:
    device driver
        intel_alloc_coherent
            __intel_map_single
                domain_context_mapping
                    domain_context_mapping_one
                        device_to_context_entry

This means, the present bit in root entry will not be set until the device
driver is loaded.

But in the kdump kernel, hardware devices are not aware that control has
transferred to the second kernel, and those drivers must initialize again.
Consequently there may be unexpected DMA requests from devices activity
initiated in the first kernel leading to the DMA Remapping errors in the
second kernel.

To fix this DMAR fault, we need to reset the bus that this device on. Reset
the device itself does not work.

A patch for this bug that has been sent before:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/30/55
As in discussion, this bug may happen on *any* device, so we need to reset
all pci devices.

There was an original version(Takao Indoh) that resets the pcie devices:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/14/9

According to the previous discussion, On sparc, the IOMMU is initialized
before PCI devices are enumerated, this patch does the resetting works before
the kdump kernel boots, so it can also fix the problems on sparc.

Update of this new version, comparing with Takao Indoh's version:
    Add support for legacy PCI devices.
    Use pci_try_reset_bus instead of do_downstream_device_reset.
    Reset all PCI/PCIe deviecs in the first kernel, before kdump kernel boots.

Randy Wright corrects some misunderstanding in this description.
