v9  -- Simplify where this mechanism works: instead of looking for
       regulators below every bridge, just look for them at the
       bridge under the root bus (root port).  Now there is no
       modification of portdrv_{pci,core}.c in this submission.
    -- Although Pali is working on support for probing native
       PCIe controller drivers, this work may take some time to
       implement and it still might not be able to accomodate
       our driver's requirements (e.g. vreg suspend/resume control).
    -- Move regulator suspend/resume control to Brcm RC driver.  It
       must reside there because (a) in order to know when to
       initiate linkup during resume and (b) to turn on the
       regulators before any config-space accesses occur.
    -- Commit message spelling, word choice (Bjorn, Krzysztof)
    -- Refactor a small commit that was ignoring a funcs' return
       values (Bjorn).
    -- Here is a summary of this mechanism:

       If:
           -- PCIe RC driver sets pci_ops {add,remove)_bus to
              pci_subdev_regulators_{add,remove}_bus during its probe.
           -- There is a DT node "RB" under the host bridge DT node.
           -- During the RC driver's pci_host_probe() the add_bus callback
              is invoked where (bus->parent && pci_is_root_bus(bus->parent)
              is true

       Then:
           -- A struct subdev_regulators structure will be allocated and
              assigned to bus->dev.driver_data.
           -- regulator_bulk_{get,enable}() will be invoked on &bus->dev
              and the former will search for and process any
              vpcie{12v,3v3,3v3aux}-supply properties that reside in node "RB".
           -- The regulators will be turned off/on for any unbind/bind operations.
           -- The regulators will be turned off/on for any suspend/resumes, but
              only if the RC driver handles this on its own.  This will appear
              in a later commit for the pcie-brcmstb.c driver.

v8  -- Only the two binding commits and the "Change brcm_phy_stop()" commit
       are unchanged.
    -- The code has been moved to portdrv_pci.c and bus.c.  The regulators   
       are placed in bus->dev.driver_data (bus->sysdata is already occupied
       by the Broadcom PCIe).  Two functions, pci_subdev_regulators_{add,remove}_bus()
       are created to turn the regulators on/off.  The pcie_portdriver also sets
       its pci_driver methods suspend and resume when the conditions are
       right for this feature.  (Robh for suggestions, although I probably
       erred in following them).
    -- Have the root complex return 0xffffffff on accesses even when
       the link is down and the HW doesn't support such accesses (PaliR).
    -- Just call devm_bulk_regulator_get() on standard supplies; don't
       bother pre-scanning the DT for them (MarkB).

v7  -- RobH suggested putting the "vpcixxx-supply" property under the
       bridge-node rather than the endpoint device node.  Also, he said to
       use the pci-ops add_bus/remove methods.  Doing so simplifies the
       code greatly and three commits were dropped.  Thanks!

    -- Rob also suggested (I think) having this patchset be a general
       feature which is activated by an OF property under the bridge node.
       I tried to do that but realized that our root complex driver
       controls the regulators with its dev_pm_ops and there is no way to
       transfer this control when using general mechanism.  Note that
       although the regulator core deals with suspend, our RC driver wants
       the right to sometimes to preclude this for WOL scenarios.

    -- One commit was added to change the response to the return value of
       the pci_ops add_bus() method.  Currently, an error causes a WARNING,
       a dev_err(...), and continues to return the child bus.  The
       modification was, for returning -ENOLINK only, to skip WARNING &
       dev_err() and return NULL.  This is necessary for our RC HW, as if
       the code continues on it will do a pci_read_config_dword() for the
       vendor/id, and our HW flags a CPU abort (instead of returning
       0xffffffff) when the is no pcie-link established.

       [NOTE: MarkB, I did not add one of your two "Reviewed-by"s
              because the commit had a decent amount of change.]

v6   -- Dropped the idea of a placeholder regulator
        property (brcm-ep-a-supply). (MarkB)
     -- device_initialize() now called once.  Two
        commits were added for this.  (GKH)
     -- In two cases, separated a single function 
        into two or more functions (MarkB)
     -- "(void)foo();" => "foo()".  Note that although
        foo() returns an int, in this instance it is being
	invoked within a function returning void, and foo()
	already executes a dev_err() on error. (MarkB)
     -- Added a commit to correct PCIe interrupts in YAML.
     -- Removed "device_type = "pci";" for the EP node
        in the YAML example.
     -- Updated the URL related to the voltage regulator
        names on GitHub.  Note that I added vpciev3v3aux.

v5 [NOTE: It has been a while since v4.  Sorry]
     -- See "PCI: allow for callback to prepare nascent subdev"
        commit message for the cornerstone of this patchset
        and the reasons behind it.  This is a new commit.
     -- The RC driver now looks into its DT children and
        turns on regulators for a sub-device, and this occurs
	prior to PCIe link as it must.
     -- Dropped commits not related to the focus of this patchset.

v4 [NOTE: I'm not sure this fixes RobH and MarkB constraints but I'd
          like to use this pullreq as a basis for future discussion.]
   [Commit: Add bindings for ...]
     -- Fix syntax error in YAML bindings example (RobH)
     -- {vpcie12v,vpcie3v3}-supply props are back in root complex DT node
        (I believe RobH said this was okay)
   [Commit: Add control of ..]
     -- Do not do global search for regulator; now we look specifically
        for the property {vpcie12v,vpcie3v3}-supply in the root complex
	DT node and then call devm_regulator_bulk_get() (MarkB)
     -- Use devm_regulator_bulk_get() (Bjorn)
     -- s/EP/slot0 device/ (Bjorn)
     -- Spelling, capitalization (Bjorn)
     -- Have brcm_phy_stop() return a void (Bjorn)
   [Commit: Do not turn off ...]
     -- Capitalization (Bjorn)
   [Commit: Check return value ...]
     -- Commit message content (Bjorn)
     -- Move 6/6 hunk to 2/6 where it belongs (Bjorn)
     -- Move the rest of 6/6 before all other commits (Bjorn)

v3 -- Driver now searches for EP DT subnode for any regulators to turn on.
      If present, these regulators have the property names
      "vpcie12v-supply" and "vpcie3v3-supply".  The existence of these
      regulators in the EP subnode are currently pending as a pullreq
      in pci-bus.yaml at
      https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/pull/54
      (MarkB, RobH).
   -- Check return of brcm_set_regulators() (Florian)
   -- Specify one regulator string per line for easier update (Florian)
   -- Author/Committer/Signoff email changed from that of V2 from
      'james.quinlan at broadcom.com' to 'jim2101024 at gmail.com'.

v2 -- Use regulator bulk API rather than multiple calls (MarkB).

v1 -- Bindings are added for fixed regulators that may power the EP device.
   -- The brcmstb RC driver is modified to control these regulators
      during probe, suspend, and resume.
   -- 7216 type SOCs have additional error reporting HW and a
      panic handler is added to dump its info.
   -- A missing return value check is added.
