Subject[PATCH v4 0/5] x86/PCI: Improve $PIR and add $IRT PIRQ routing support
Hi,

This is an updated patch series with a fix applied to what is now 3/5 for
a bug that was reported by Dmitry (thanks!) having triggered with his
x86-64 setup and then nailed down by Linus (also thanks!). Additionally
as suggested by Linus a fix has been added, for a preexisting problem with
the routing table not being verified to stay whole within the BIOS memory
range, that has become 1/5, expanding the whole series from 4 to 5 changes
now. In the course of that addition a couple of coding style issues have
been consumed, shrinking what has now become 5/5. The cover letter has
been updated accordingly throughout.

First 1/5 handles $PIR PIRQ routing tables that lack router device
information, fixing the inability to route interrupts with a system using
the SiS85C497 ISA bridge.

Then 2/5 adds support for the $IRT PIRQ routing table format invented by
AMI before Microsoft has come up with its own $PIR format. These formats
are very similar to each other, but the $IRT format does not provide for
router device information, so this change relies on 1/5. It has turned
out needed to route interrupts with a system using the ALi M1487 ISA Bus
Controller device, discussed earlier on in a discussion thread around:
<https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/61377A45.8030003@gmail.com/>. This
change has been verified with an artificially created $IRT table.

Then 3/5 adds a range check for

Then 3/4 corrects our link value interpretation for said M1487 device
according to Nikolai's findings with his system reported here:
<https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/61428EDF.9030203@gmail.com/>.

Finally 4/4 corrects a couple of coding style issues around though not
immediately within code changed by 2/4 so as to make the style consistent.

See individual change descriptions for further details.

Credit to Michal (cc-ed) for helping me chase documentation for the
$IRT table format.

Please apply.
