Oliver O'Halloran 85d86c8aa5 selftests/powerpc: Add basic EEH selftest
Use the new eeh_dev_check and eeh_dev_break interfaces to test EEH
recovery.  Historically this has been done manually using platform specific
EEH error injection facilities (e.g. via RTAS). However, documentation on
how to use these facilities is haphazard at best and non-existent at worst
so it's hard to develop a cross-platform test.

The new debugfs interfaces allow the kernel to handle the platform specific
details so we can write a more generic set of sets. This patch adds the
most basic of recovery tests where:

a) Errors are injected and recovered from sequentially,
b) Errors are not injected into PCI-PCI bridges, such as PCIe switches.
c) Errors are only injected into device function zero.
d) No errors are injected into Virtual Functions.

a), b) and c) are largely due to limitations of Linux's EEH support.  EEH
recovery is serialised in the EEH recovery thread which forces a).
Similarly, multi-function PCI devices are almost always grouped into the
same PE so injecting an error on one function exercises the same code
paths. c) is because we currently more or less ignore PCI bridges during
recovery and assume that the recovered topology will be the same as the
original.

d) is due to the limits of the eeh_dev_break interface. With the current
implementation we can't inject an error into a specific VF without
potentially causing additional errors on other VFs. Due to the serialised
recovery process we might end up timing out waiting for another function to
recover before the function of interest is recovered. The platform specific
error injection facilities are finer-grained and allow this capability, but
doing that requires working out how to use those facilities first.

Basicly, it's better than nothing and it's a base to build on.
