This commit log is unreadable, sorry. Indentation, punctuation and
formatting are just a mess, try to read it, you will notice by
yourself.

I basically reformatted it completely and pushed the series to
pci/controller-fixes but that's the last time I do it since I am not an
editor, next time I won't merge it.

More importantly, these patches are marked for stable, given the series
of fixes that triggered this series please ensure it was tested
thoroughly because it is honestly complicate to understand and I do not
want to backport further fixes to stable kernels on top of this.

Please have a look and report back.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
