Current pci_fixup_irqs() usage on ARM/ARM64 host controller drivers is
flawed in that pci_fixup_irqs() allocates IRQs for all PCI devices present
in a system; those PCI devices possibly belong to different PCI bus trees
(and possibly rooted at different host bridges) and may well be enabled
(ie probed and bound to a driver) by the time pci_fixup_irqs() is called
when probing a given host bridge driver.

Furthermore, current kernel code relying on pci_fixup_irqs() to
assign legacy PCI IRQs to devices does not work at all for
hotplugged devices in that the code carrying out the IRQ fixup
is called at host bridge driver probe time, which just cannot take
into account devices hotplugged after system has booted.

By leveraging Matthew Minter's patch series (and its purpose):

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1445576642-29624-2-git-send-email-matt at masarand.com

this series[1] adds IRQs mapping and swizzling primitives to
the struct pci_host_bridge which allows IRQs to be allocated for
for a device at probe time with host bridge specific functions,
fixing the aforementioned limitations.

Current series remove pci_fixup_irqs() usage on ARM/ARM64; removal
can be extended to other architectures provided the IRQs map/swizzle
functions are set-up properly in the respective host bridges
set-up/probe paths.

Tested on kvmtool with PCI host generic.
I've tested this on Jetson TX1 (though I need a small patch specific to
Tegra on top to fix a preexisting issue) and things seem to be working
normally.

The output of "lspci -v" is identical before and after applying the
series (on top of next-20170427):

Hi Thierry,

thanks a lot, that's very appreciated, it is exactly what I need.

Please let me know if you have comments on the individual patches too.

Thanks !
