Subject: [PATCH 2/2] shpchp: Rename duplicate slot name N as N-1, N-2,
	N-M...

Commit ef0ff95f136f0f2d035667af5d18b824609de320 (shpchp: fix slot name)
introduces the shpchp_slot_with_bus module parameter, which was intended
to help work around broken firmware that assigns the same name to multiple
slots.

Commit b3bd307c628af2f0a581c42d5d7e4bcdbbf64b6a (shpchp: add message about
shpchp_slot_with_bus option) tells the user to use the above parameter
in the event of a name collision.

This approach is sub-optimal because it requires too much work from
the user.

Instead, let's rename the slot on behalf of the user. If firmware
assigns the name N to multiple slots, then:

	The first registered slot is assigned N
	The second registered slot is assigned N-1
	The third registered slot is assigned N-2
	The Mth registered slot becomes N-M

In the event we overflow the slot->name parameter, we report an
error to the user.

This is a temporary fix until the entire PCI core can be reworked
such that individual drivers no longer have to manage their own
slot names.
