Lukas Wunner cdf6b73621 PCI: pciehp: Always enable occupied slot on probe
Per PCIe r4.0, sec 6.7.3.4, a "port may optionally send an MSI when
there are hot-plug events that occur while interrupt generation is
disabled, and interrupt generation is subsequently enabled."

On probe, we currently clear all event bits in the Slot Status register
with the notable exception of the Presence Detect Changed bit.  Thereby
we seek to receive an interrupt for an already occupied slot once event
notification is enabled.

But because the interrupt is optional, users may have to specify the
pciehp_force parameter on the command line, which is inconvenient.

Moreover, now that pciehp's event handling has become resilient to
missed events, a Presence Detect Changed interrupt for a slot which is
powered on is interpreted as removal of the card.  If the slot has
already been brought up by the BIOS, receiving such an interrupt on
probe causes the slot to be powered off and immediately back on, which
is likewise undesirable.

Avoid both issues by making the behavior of pciehp_force the default and
clearing the Presence Detect Changed bit on probe.

Note that the stated purpose of pciehp_force per the MODULE_PARM_DESC
("Force pciehp, even if OSHP is missing") seems nonsensical because the
OSHP control method is only relevant for SHCP slots according to the
PCI Firmware specification r3.0, sec 4.8.

README

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.
