Linux tries to pre-allocate minimal resources to hotplug bridges. This works fine as long as there are enough resources to satisfy all other genuine resource requirements. However if enough resources are not available to satisfy any of these nice-to-have pre-allocations, the resource-allocator reports errors and returns failure. This patch distinguishes between must-have resource from nice-to-have resource. Any failure to allocate nice-to-have resources are ignored. This behavior can be particularly useful to trigger automatic reallocation when the OS discovers genuine allocation-conflicts or genuine unallocated-requests caused by buggy allocation behavior of the native BIOS/uEFI. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15960 captures the movitation behind the patch. This patch is verified to resolve the above bug. changelog v2: o fixed a bug where pci_assign_resource() was called on a resource of zero resource size. changelog v3: addressed Bjorn's comment o "Please don't indent and right-justify the changelog". o removed add_size from struct resource. The additional size is now tracked using a linked list. changelog v4: o moved freeing up of elements in head list from assign_requested_resources_sorted() to __assign_resources_sorted(). o removed a wrong reference to 'add_size' in pbus_size_mem(). o some code optimizations in adjust_resources_sorted() and assign_requested_resources_sorted() changelog v5: o moved freeing up of elements in head list from assign_requested_resources_sorted() to __assign_resources_sorted(). o removed a wrong reference to 'add_size' in pbus_size_mem(). o some code optimizations in adjust_resources_sorted() and assign_requested_resources_sorted() changelog v5: o factored out common code and made them into separate independent patches o added comments in kdoc format o added a BUG_ON in pci_assign_unassigned_resources() to catch for memory leak.
