powerpc/pseries: use pci_host_bridge.release_fn() to kfree(phb)
This patch leverages 'struct pci_host_bridge' from the PCI subsystem in order to free the pci_controller only after the last reference to its devices is dropped (avoiding an oops in pcibios_release_device() if the last reference is dropped after pcibios_free_controller()). The patch relies on pci_host_bridge.release_fn() (and .release_data), which is called automatically by the PCI subsystem when the root bus is released (i.e., the last reference is dropped). Those fields are set via pci_set_host_bridge_release() (e.g. in the platform-specific implementation of pcibios_root_bridge_prepare()). It introduces the 'pcibios_free_controller_deferred()' .release_fn() and it expects .release_data to hold a pointer to the pci_controller. The function implictly calls 'pcibios_free_controller()', so an user must *NOT* explicitly call it if using the new _deferred() callback. The functionality is enabled for pseries (although it isn't platform specific, and may be used by cxl). Details on not-so-elegant design choices: - Use 'pci_host_bridge.release_data' field as pointer to associated 'struct pci_controller' so *not* to 'pci_bus_to_host(bridge->bus)' in pcibios_free_controller_deferred(). That's because pci_remove_root_bus() sets 'host_bridge->bus = NULL' (so, if the last reference is released after pci_remove_root_bus() runs, which eventually reaches pcibios_free_controller_deferred(), that would hit a null pointer dereference). The cxl/vphb.c code calls pci_remove_root_bus(), and the cxl folks are interested in this fix.
