[RFC/RFT PATCH 0/3] Prepwork for non-PCIe NHI/TBT hosts

[Konrad Dybcio]

Currently, the NHI driver (and other parts of the TBT framework) make
multiple assumptions about the host router being a PCIe device. This
series tries to decouple them by moving the 'struct pci_device' out of
the NHI code and introduce NHI-on-PCIe-specific abstractions where
necessary (with no functional change).

The intended usage of the new nhi_probe_common() is pretty similar to
other bus frameworks (I2C, SPI, USB..), i.e.:

static int foo_bar_probe() {
	// get SoC-specifc resources (clks, regulators..)

	// power things on

	// set some implementation-specific registers

	// register NHI and all the sub-devices
	ret = nhi_probe_common(&my_usb4->nhi)
	...

	// cleanup boilerplate
}

Instead of the previously-suggested aux/fauxbus, the NHI device remains
the same 'struct dev' as the PCIe/platform/[...] device that provides
it. This is in line with some other buses and it makes things easier
from the PM perspective.

Compile-tested only for the PCIe case. The Qualcomm USB4 driver that
leverages this patchset is unfortunately still work in progress and
will be shared at a later time. Nonetheless, we need to get this
non-PCIe topic sorted.
