[PATCH v2 0/6] hv: Front-end driver for PCIe Pass-through on Hyper-V

[jakeo]

From: Jake Oshins <jakeo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch does some slight refactoring on the hv_vmbus driver and its
dependents and then introduces a new paravirtual front-end driver for PCI
which supports PCI Express devices passed through to a Linux guest running
in a Hyper-V VM.

To support this front-end, several new mechanisms are introduced:

1 - A common way of finding free memory-mapped I/O space in a Hyper-V VM, 
    available to all Hyper-V-related drivers.

2 - A way of handling PCI Message-Signaled Interrupt (MSI and MSI-X)
    creation and formatting when Hyper-V is running.

3 - A mapping function from Linux processor number to Hyper-V virtual
    processor number, available to drivers, which is necessary for MSI(-X)
    creation.

The Hyper-V Frame Buffer driver is modified to use the MMIO space
allocation function so that its allocations both don't collide with the
PCI front end and so that the chosen range can come from any available
part of MMIO space.

Finally, the new PCI front-end driver is the last patch in the series.

This patch series incorporates feedback from Greg K-H and Paul Bolle, and
it differs from the the first version in that it:

- Removes code that has no callers
- Updates the MODULE_LICENSE macro
- Provides explanations in each of the patches
- Fixes the Kconfig so that the defaults and depends are reasonable
