Sometimes, it's necessary to enable software's ability to quiesce and
reset endpoint hardware with function-level granularity, so provide
support for it.
The patch implement Function Level Reset(FLR) feature following PCI-e
spec. And this is the first step. We would add more generic method, like
D0/D3, to allow more devices support this function.
The patch contains two functions. pcie_reset_function() is the new
driver API, and, contains some action to quiesce a device. The other
function is a helper: pcie_execute_reset_function() just executes the
reset for a particular device function.
Current the usage model is in KVM. Function reset is necessary for
assigning device to a guest, or moving it between partitions.
For Function Level Reset(FLR), please refer to PCI Express spec chapter
6.6.2.
