Subject: [PATCH 3.19 010/101] PCI: Dont look for ACPI hotplug parameters if ACPI is disabled

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

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

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@...gle.com>

commit 8647ca9ad5a0065ad53a2ad7e39163592b6ed35e upstream.

Booting a v3.18 or newer Xen domU kernel with PCI devices passed through
results in an oops (this is a 32-bit 3.13.11 dom0 with a 64-bit 4.4.0
hypervisor and 32-bit domU):

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0030303e
  IP: [<c06ed0e6>] acpi_ns_validate_handle+0x12/0x1a
  Call Trace:
   [<c06eda4d>] ? acpi_evaluate_object+0x31/0x1fc

   [<c0699d34>] ? pci_device_add+0x24/0x450

Don't look for ACPI configuration information if ACPI has been disabled.

I don't think this is the best fix, because we can boot plain Linux (no
Xen) with "acpi=off", and we don't need this check in pci_get_hp_params().
There should be a better fix that would make Xen domU work the same way.
The domU kernel has ACPI support but it has no AML.  There should be a way
to initialize the ACPI data structures so things fail gracefully rather
than oopsing.  This is an interim fix to address the regression.
