V1 -> V2: Thanks to the review from Johannes Thumshirn, the patch 2/3 of
the first version has been removed and the cleaner solution from patch 3/3
is then kept.
The PCI mcb driver is currently only able to register devices that use
the first PCI BAR. That is hardcoded in mcb-parse.c in lines 156-161:
c = kzalloc_obj(struct chameleon_bar);
if (!c)
return -ENOMEM;
bar_count = 1;
c->addr = mapbase;
However, mcb devices can use other indexes of the 6 PCI BARs. This serie of
patches allows to use these devices by adding the relevant PCI BAR info to
the chameleon table. As this code must also work for lpc devices, it has
been done a refactoring in order to keep the two buses dependent operations
regarding bars (get_bar and is_io_mapped_bar) outside of the common parsing
code. These callback operations are stored in a structure and passed over
to the parser, thus rendering each module, the mcb-lpc and mcb-pci, only
with their own bus relevant logic.
This patch depends on the previously accepted patch:

Added to mcb-for-next.
Sorry for the delay.
