Subject: [PATCH] pciehp: Add pciehp_surprise module option

We encountered a problem that on some HP machines the Realtek PCI-e
card reader device appears only when you inserted a card before the
cold boot.  While debugging, it turned out that the device is actually
handled via PCI-e hotplug in some level.  The device sends a presence
change notification, and pciehp receives it, but it's ignored because
of lack of the hotplug surprise (PCI_EXP_SLTCAP_HPS) capability bit.
Once when this check passes, everything starts working -- the device
appears upon plugging the card properly.

There are a few other bug reports indicating the similar problems
(e.g. on recent Dell laptops), and I guess the culprit is same.

This patch adds a new module option, pciehp_surprise, to pciehp as a
workaround.  When pciehp_surprise=1 is given, pciehp handles the
presence change as the device on/off as if PCI_EXP_SLTCAP_HPS is set.
Unless it's set explicitly, there is no impact on the existing
behavior.
