Subject: [ 05/72] PCI: workaround hard-wired bus number V2

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai.lu@...cle.com>

commit 71f6bd4a23130cd2f4b036010c5790b1295290b9 upstream.

Fixes PCI device detection on IBM xSeries IBM 3850 M2 / x3950 M2
when using ACPI resources (_CRS).
This is default, a manual workaround (without this patch)
would be pci=nocrs boot param.

V2: Add dev_warn if the workaround is hit. This should reveal
how common such setups are (via google) and point to possible
problems if things are still not working as expected.
-> Suggested by Jan Beulich.
