[patch 2/19] pci: bridge resource handling update

"Transparent" PCI-PCI bridges are currently "ignored" by the resource
management code in the PCI core. This means devices behind the bridge are
handled as if there was no bridge.

However, it seems more suitable -- and it seems to allow for proper
"prefetch"-type memory handling, too -- to handle a transparent PCI-PCI bridge
like any other PCI-PCI bridge, and to only break out of the limits set by
the bridge windows if the resource allocation code determines it needs to
do s.

The tricky part is in pci_find_parent_resource(). There are two types of
functions calling it: some functions already know the exact resource for
which they want to find the parent in order to properly insert it into the
resource database. This can be handled easily -- if the resource is inside
the bridge window, this is returned; if it isn't, the bridge's parent
resource is returned.

However, two callers (yenta_socket and i2o) intend something different: they
call pci_find_parent_resource() with an empty resource and want to find out
the biggest valid resource of the proper type in order to analyze it and
adapt its own hunger for resources to it. To keep this behaviour
backwards-compatible, we always need to not limit it to the bridge window
resources, but get back to the parent bus.


This patch is a modified and (hopefully) improved derivation of Linus'
"pcmcia-bridge-resource-management-fix.patch" included in 2.6.11-rc4-mm1.
