Subject: [PATCH V4: 1/3] pci: Provide Multiple Error Received and no error source id support on AER

Anyone could help me test it on powerpc? Or at least a compilation
to see there is any compiling error/warning. I have no powerpc machine.
Thanks.

Changelog V4:
Port the patches to Jesses' linux-next tree (mostly based on
2.6.30).

Changelog V3:
1) Probe devices under the root port when the bus id of
the source id is equal to 0; V2 does so when device id is
equal to 0;
2) Add more comments on critical path of finding devices.

Changelog V2:
Version 2 adds nosourceid, a boot parameter. When
aerdriver.nosourceid=y, aerdriver doesn't use the source
id saved by root port. Instead, it searches the device
tree under the root port to find the reporter. So if hardware
has errata and root port saves a bad source id, aerdriver
still could find the reporter.
There are 2 scenarios under which aerdriver searches the
device tree under root port:
1) nosourceid=n and error source id is equal to 0;
2) nosourceid=y.

Based on PCI Express AER specs, a root port might receive multiple
TLP errors while it could only save a correctable error source id
and an uncorrectable error source id at the same time. In addition,
some root port hardware might be unable to provide a correct source
id, i.e., the source id, or the bus id part of the source id provided
by root port might be equal to 0.

The patchset implements the support in kernel by searching the device
tree under the root port.

Patch 1 changes parameter cb of function pci_walk_bus to return a value.
When cb return non-zero, pci_walk_bus stops more searching on the
device tree.
