[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Support Function Level Reset (FLR) in the xen-pciback module (v1) and some fixes.

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The attached patches allow the pciback module to perform a reset whenever
a PCI device is:
 - attached to the pciback module, as so:
  echo "0000:01.07.0" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/pciback/bind
 - detached from the pciback module, as so:
  echo "0000:01.07.0" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/pciback/unbind
 - and when the guest is done with (internally when the guest is not using
   the PCI device anymore).

I ran in one issue which is that I could not do pci_reset_function call when 
"bind"
or "unbind" were done as the device_lock was held (and pci_reset_function tried 
to
acquire the mutex). The solution was to introduce a new "pci_reset_function":

[PATCH 1/5] pci: Introduce __pci_reset_function_locked to be used
and then piggyback on that in
[PATCH 2/5] xen/pciback: Support pci_reset_function, aka FLR or D3

Also there are two fixes included in this - one where the PCI_DEV_FLAG_ASSIGNED
was in the wrong location and the "device has been assigned to other domain"
warning that always appeared. More details are in the patches themselves.
