Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)

Previously we unconditionally requested the legacy VGA framebuffer (bus
address 0xa0000-0xbffff) before we even know what PCI devices are present,
in these paths:
pci_fire_pbm_init, schizo_pbm_init, pci_sun4v_pbm_init, psycho_pbm_init_common
pci_determine_mem_io_space
pci_register_legacy_regions
p->start = mem_res->start + 0xa0000
request_resource(mem_res, p) # claim VGA framebuffer
pci_scan_one_pbm
pci_of_scan_bus # scan DT for PCI devices
pci_claim_bus_resources # claim PCI device BARs
If we found a PCI device with a BAR or bridge window that overlapped the
framebuffer area, we complained about not being able to claim the BAR,
e.g.,
pci 0000:00:01.0: can't claim BAR 8 [mem 0x1ff00000000-0x1ffbfffffff]: address conflict with Video RAM area [??? 0x1ff000a0000-0x1ff000bffff flags 0x80000000]
pci 0000:02:01.0: can't claim BAR 8 [mem 0x1ff00100000-0x1ff028fffff]: no compatible bridge window
pci 0000:03:0f.0: can't claim BAR 8 [mem 0x1ff00100000-0x1ff028fffff]: no compatible bridge window
pci 0000:04:04.0: can't claim BAR 1 [mem 0x1ff02808000-0x1ff02808fff]: no compatible bridge window
This may make the conflicting device unusable because we try not to enable
devices that have unassigned or conflicting BARs, e.g.,
qla1280 0000:04:04.0: can't ioremap BAR 1: [mem size 0x00001000]
qla1280: Unable to map I/O memory
If there is no VGA device in the same PCI segment, there's no reason to
reserve the framebuffer and there's no conflict. If there *is* a VGA
device in the same segment, both the VGA device and the device with an
overlapping BAR may respond to the framebuffer addresses, which may cause
bus errors.
Request the legacy framebuffer area only when we actually find a VGA
device. The fact that VGA devices use the legacy framebuffer even though
it's not reported in a BAR is not sparc-specific, so the reservation of
that area could be made more generic in the PCI core eventually.
Note that on some systems, e.g., Blade 100, we still report a conflict
between an ISA bridge (00:07.0) and a VGA device (00:13.0):
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [mem 0x1ff00000000-0x1ffffffffff] (bus address [0x00000000-0xffffffff])
pci 0000:00:07.0: reg 0x14: [mem 0x1ff00000000-0x1ff000fffff]
pci 0000:00:13.0: can't claim VGA legacy [mem 0x1ff000a0000-0x1ff000bffff]: address conflict with 0000:00:07.0 [mem 0x1ff00000000-0x1ff000fffff]
This is probably harmless, but if the VGA device and something behind the
ISA bridge both responded to reads of the framebuffer, it would cause a bus
error.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
