[PATCH 1/1] PCI: ignore failure to preallocate minimal resourcesto hotplug bridges

[Ram Pai]

        PCI: ignore failure to preallocate minimal resources to 
		hotplug bridges

	Linux tries to pre-allocate minimal resources to hotplug 
	bridges.  This 	works 	fine as long as there are enough 
	resources  to  satisfy   all   other   genuine  resource
	requirements.  However  if  enough  resources   are  not 
	available    to    satisfy    the    pre-allocation, the 
	resource-allocator reports errors and returns failure.
	
	This patch distinguishes between must-need resources and
	nice-to-have   resources.   Any   failure   to  allocate 
	nice-to-have resources are ignored. 

	This  behavior  can  be  particularly  useful to trigger 
	automatic  reallocation, if  the  OS  discovers  genuine 
	resource  allocation  conflicts  or  genuine unallocated 
	BARs  caused  by not-so-smart allocation behavior of the 
	native BIOS.

	The motivation for this patch is due a issue reported in 
	https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15960
